“Ghost Bloom” New Watercolor
I’m really having fun with the black paper. As a result, I can present the new painting, “Ghost Bloom”.
And it’s framed. Not a great picture. I’ll replace it when I get a better one.
Nighttime Bouquet
My latest endeavor with the black paper! I am so liking this.
White Poppies
I came across a piece of art online of some flowers done on black paper. I’ve tried working on black paper with watercolor and only gotten muted results. But, when I looked the piece of artwork up, it said that she had done it using gouache. So, I gave it another try and I think I am in love with this process! This is my first gouache on black paper. There will definitely be more to come!

“Woody’s Diner”
New Watercolor – Woody’s Diner
Symphony in Blue
New Watercolor – Symphony in Blue. The name came from a combination of suggestions from a couple of friends.
Flicker Watch
Sparrow Landing
Watching from the Sidelines
I have held off on posting this painting. It was originally done at the request of someone that had purchased one of my other paintings. He wanted a painting of wood ducks and gave me a couple of rather bad reference photos. Basically told me just wanted it landscape and would leave the rest to my artistic style. Long story short, when I showed him the final result, he picked at it. “I wanted them in the water (uhm, they are) and further away from the edge. Uhmmm, I like them there and what happened to artist choice?
At any rate, lesson learned. No more commissions. Not worth it. I still like the painting and it deserves to be seen.
So I present “Watching From the Sidelines”
World Watercolor Month 2021
So, I am going to see how well I do on a painting every day in July. I figured the best way to do this is with a gallery once I have a second. So, here we go with World Watercolor Month for 2021.
