Alice Faye

Alice Faye loved her daughters and grandchildren, and she loved fishing!  She believed in being comfortable and living simply. This particular day her and her daughter Tab had the best day fishing even tho they never caught a fish. I couldn't resist painting her with her floppy hat, worn overalls, and fishing rag! Painted with MaimeriBlu paints on watercolor paper.

Got a Light?

It is no secret that I love everything about the beach. If I listed everything that I loved about the beach, I would probably bore you. Sea gulls seem to have personality and this one just seems to have a story. A friend of mine took this photo and graciously allowed me to use it in this painting. I had so much fun painting him, I think I will do it again! This is a watercolor using MaimeriBlu paints on #300 lb. paper. I love painting white areas with a lot of color and I think shadows should be as interesting as the rest of the subject matter. Bet this painting will end up being a workshop in the near future.
