The DailyPaintWorks Challenge inspires this piece. This is the challenge to give the smallest amount of information and still have it read as an "apple?” The challenge is to paint an apple - any apple - in as few areas of color as possible, and still have it read as a 3-dimensional apple.

​This piece was so much fun to do ~ I love the sweeping arch of shade crossing the ivy and into the water. And just in case it doesn't read very well that is a bridge to the left going overhead.  Ahhhhhhh ~ keeping the brushes wet.

Playing with color

is one of the most fun things to do in any paint medium. Learning what colors blend to make other colors. It makes one feel like a kid again.

Betta

Betta Watercolor 7 x 7 $35. To purchase click here This is a painting of my fish John Singer Sergent, a beautiful and hardy little betta. At a little over a year old, John traveled in a large jar stuck in a box with an assortment of other precious cargo. It was August of 2011 and I was moving from Prescott, AZ to San Antonio, TX. It was a three-day trek with record high temperatures. John traveled and stayed in the jar for three days. With no food and left in the car at night while I slept in a hotel room. This may border on abuse and yes I did feel guilty but with my three little dogs, well they needed to be walked and fed and so did I. So he took a back seat even though he was really on the front floorboard of the car. So anyway once in San Antonio ~ I pulled out the little jar afraid of what I might find and much to my relief, John was haggard and worn out and very much alive. He spent the next three days on the dresser feeding twice a day while I looked for a place to rent. John is pushing two years old. I’m not sure how long betta’s live ~ he’s looking a little worn and very active. He can almost be hand fed and is a lively little desk companion.

Blue Landscape

3.9.12 Friday Fun Day It is cold and rainy here in San Antonio, TX and I have a lot of left side brainwork planned for the rest of the day. So I thought I would review and practice watercolor techniques and just play ~~~~ working from Joye Moons book “Exploring Textures in Watercolor.” • Using only one color ~ ultramarine blue. • I first drew in the horizon line. • Painted the sky wet into wet ~ starting at the top. • When the paint from the sky had dried a bit I created the tree line. • Wanting to force a burst of water I added clear water to the trees trying to create an organic edge. This was successful on the second tree from the left. The others just kind of fizzed and faded. • I then dry brushed in the foreground. • Then the fence posts were added ~ the closest one being the darkest and working from dark to light. Larger to smaller. To give a sense of depth. • And then the tree was painted in originally using a palette knife, but I just couldn’t get enough paint on the knife to get any good movement so I introduces a # 10 round paint brush. I still used the knife to create some texture. And voila ~ a Friday Fun Day painting! And now into the office.
