Summer Barn

watercolor 14 x 21 landscape $100

Took a trip to Ohio this summer and on the way there and back, I was able to take some neat photos of barns.

My classes begin in 7 days and we are going to begin by painting barns so you will see a lot of them in the next few weeks.

Another Type of Hibiscus

watercolor 11 x 15 floral $50

This one was inspired from the garden walk, but I did it in the studio. I think these are sometimes called plate hibiscus.

Hibiscus


watercolor 15 x 11 floral

This was the second painting I was able to complete at the garden walk for the fundraiser this past Sunday. It is fun to paint plein air, but it is a challenge.

Urn-plein air


watercolor 15 x 11 floral $50

Today was a fundraiser for children at a local hospital. It was a garden walk and I was asked to paint in the gardens. I was also able to sell my work :) and I had a new student sign up for my watercolor classes :))

I have never seen the beauty of a garden like I have in this one. It had many statues and waterfalls and so much lush green foliage. It was so peaceful. I will be going back to do more painting here again. I took a bunch of photos so you know what my next series will be....do come back.

Path Along the River

watercolor 14 x 21 landscape

This is another painting of Chagrin Falls. I think it might be my last in this series. I wanted to challenge myself to use green paint since I find this a hard color to work with. It's not easy being green.
