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.

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.

catching the wind


Spotted this catamaran moored on South Padre Island, Texas. It was well-worn with many colorful patches, but still a beauty catching the suns rays. Some subjects are a perfect fit for watercolor. Painted with MaimeriBlu paints on watercolor paper.
