Third Place!

Well, I finally placed in a juried show for my waterfall painting, and I'm very honored to have won third because the show had so many wonderful paintings. It certainly helps me to work even harder and not give up. I almost gave up on this painting because it was so difficult but I'm glad I didn't. Now on to the next!!!

"Rushing Waters - Revelation 19:5-8"

Finally done with this painting..........Whew.....but happy with the outcome. Will be in the Cade Gallery show at Anne Arundel Community College from July 23rd thru August 13th. Open Monday thru Friday 9:00-4:00 if you want to go see the Annapolis Watercolor Club's juried show.

Almost done!

Waterfall continued.......

It's getting there! Slowly but surely. It keeps getting more complicated the more I keep painting and now I'm faced with a deadline to get this in the AWC show at the Cade Gallery. Hopefully I will like the end result. I'm liking it better than I did a few days ago......I'm VERY hard to please.

Painting in Progress

Currently working on this waterfall painting. Also started as an ambitious class project which we couldn't finish in time. I promised them I would post it so they could finish theirs too and see how my finished painting came out. It's on a full sheet of Arches 140 lb. so it's pretty large. I'm interested myself to see how it will turn out........to be continued!

Black-Eyed Susans in the Sun

I started this painting as a demo in class then decided to work on it and improve it some. I'm pretty happy with the results.

Went to a great workshop with Jean Spicer and we did lots of flowers. This one is the one I fell in love with the colors. It's my own painting so I didn't copy anything.....she just showed us how we should get simpler in our design. Great workshop.....it's always worth it to try new things.....I think I'll hold on to simple......in more ways than one!
