Fall Barn - Demo #3

watercolor - landscape - 14 x 21

This was last Friday morning class demo. All classes last week had me doing a demo...now this week they will be painting the barn study that they were sketching in class. They had to bring in their own photographs and come up with a composition. Tomorrow I will watch THEM paint. Fun!!

Fall Barn -Demo 2

Here is another demo that I did for my students. Using a limited palette I did this fall scene for them. This is a common scene for my area. Enjoy.

Barn Demo #1

watercolor 12 x 21 landscape $75

Classes began this past week. For each class I begin with a demo. I thought it would be a good idea if we all painted barns. So I had them bring their barn photos in to work from. I did three demos this past week so do come back to see them.

Limbs and Leaves

watercolor 21" x 21" Landscape

This is #3 in my series of leaves and negative painting. I am going to get a gicle' print made of this painting to hang in my kitchen for fall. Hope you enjoy it.

"Nature's Beauty"

watercolor 16 x 24 landscape

This is my newest series. It will be nature at it's finest. I just hope I was able to catch it's beauty. This technique is called negative painting. No masking fluid was used. I love doing these and I get lost in the painting process as I do them. Enjoy!!

Along the River Edge

watercolor - landscape-18 x 26

This was actually inspired from my trip to Chagrin Falls. It was fun doing all of the negative painting on this watercolor. This is the start of my next series. Keep coming back as I add new paintings to it.

To Rectangle or Not to Rectangle

watercolor 5 x 11 landscape $40 each

The challenge for this week on dailypaintworks was to paint anything but to use only rectangles. With each rectangle we had to use a different color/value. This is a hard assignment to do in wc since we work in washes and not brush strokes. I did the rectangle one first and then I redid the painting as I normally would paint it. Two totally different looks.
