Summer Blues

Summer is my favorite time of year, so blue I am not! I love flowers and these beauties grown in my back yard in NC. 10 x 14 watercolor original will fit standard mat and frame. Painted with MaimeriBlu watercolors on watercolor paper.

SUM'R CANNED

This is how I want to paint! It is difficult to paint with abandon. What will people say?!

I have expectations of myself and so do others. I just might break out and do it anyway!

This is an 8 x 10 watercolor with deckle edges of straw flowers in a Sum'r Ale beer can. I used MaimeriBlu watercolor paints on watercolor paper.

Sea Hop

Every time we go to Beaufort, NC, we turn right toward the waterfront. My husband suddenly turned left, saying we always turn right. Well, we found water on the left side too! We saw people that appeared to be living on their humble boats. I just couldn't take my eyes off of them and decided they had to be painted. Sea Hop is the first one I have painted. Trailers by the Sea is the name I am calling this series of paintings. Their homes are humble, but their "yards" are just divine. Painted with MaimeriBlu watercolors on watercolor paper.

Summer Breeze

There is nothing like a summer breeze, sound of gulls and waves on a hot summer day in North Carolina. Its my happy place! How do you like a white umbrella with plenty of color? This painting was done with the FW inks from Daler Rowney. It and others will be on display at the Flying Pig for the months of May and June at Oak Island, NC.

FW Wonderful Day on the Water

FW acrylic inks made by the Daler-Rowney company are soooooooo addictive! I used them like watercolors in this painting and probably painted this as fast as I have ever painted anything. Used white, Rowney blue, and dark green. 

Paint the Sky

Sunflower, a tall flower that is short lived. When you see them you have to stop and enjoy them before they are gone again. They stand around just waiting to be noticed. Something about that yellow against the blue sky. Painted with MaimeriBlu paints on aqua board.
