These are some boats that really needed to be painted (play on words). They were actually near the area where the previous dock painting was pauinted from.

This is really near to my home and I took my photo reference for this years ago and I just felt now was the time to paint it. Enjoy.

Light House Demo step-by-step

14" X 21"


This is the demo that I did for the afternoon class today. I want them to try to use less colors. The student's had to bring in their own reference photos and then do a value sketch. They will finish theirs up next week and then we will have a critique of all of them.

"Family-Tree"


watercolor
landscape
14" x 21"
$150


Thought I would get a few more snow scenes in before this season is over. Hopefully spring will come soon and then I will be painting flowers. We have been having crazy weather here...one day tornados (south of me in Indiana) and then the next day it snows. Today it hit 65 but is windy as all get out. (what does that term mean?) Good thing it is not raining because this is not the winds you want with any kind of rain.

Thought I would play with the design of the fire excape and create this painting. I love the title. Enjoy. Have a great week.

Been doing local scenes since these are near and dear to me. This is about a mile away and it is a concrete plant/company. I thought they created a lot of interesting shapes...welcome to Indiana!!

Last month's trip to Chicago gave me a lot of subject matter to work from. Here is a view as you enter into the city.
