rock painting in progress


I have had several comments on this piece as it develops. And people really like rocks. We see the beauty in them, relate to their stillness and understand the proximity.

This morning I realized that rocks are how my journey as an artist began. In the mid ‘90’s I went on a road trip camping trip for the first time into the magnificent state of Utah. On a hike in at Arches National Park I was called like Richard Dryfuss in his movie Close Encounters to paint The Delicate Arch.

And so it began ~ it took all of one summer to paint.

Rose


Rose
15 x 19.5
Watercolor on 300lb cold press paper

My neighborhood is such a pleasure to walk in. Beautiful gardens huge old trees, one home has a Redwood in the front yard. So this is my second flower in my floral series. Using a limited palette of Quinacridone Red (red), Quinacridone Gold (yellow) and French Ultramarine Blue (blue). 

The painting is finished with a natural border of white. I was able to do this buy taping it off before painting.

The Child Within


It is the child that sees the primordial secret in Nature and it is the child of ourselves we return to. The child within us is simple and daring enough to live the Secret. LAO~TZU — at Painting by Teresa Beyer of Liquid Colour.
