Amarillo Watercolor Society

I was invited to go to Amarillo TX and do a workshop for Amarillo watercolor Society.
I had such a fun time.  We had 10 to come and they were all ready and so receptive, and encouraging to me and my work. I judged their show which was so hard.  The work was really good . It makes you feel bad to not be able to just give them all awards but that would defeat the purpose.
The two bottom sketches I did while there.

Jack Richeson Award

The West Texas Watercolor Society show starts this week, and I was awarded a Jack Richeson & Co., Inc award.  It is fun to get to go to their website and pick out new paint! I have started using Casein paint and really do like it, so that is my choice of paint!

Glass is Hard!

This week a friend, Mollie Jones, came for a visit. She is one of the best painters of glass I know. We had a little mini class one afternoon, and after she left, I set up a quilt I made with a bowl that was an anniversary gift, and worked really hard trying to get a glass look! Whew! it is not easy. especially with out Mollie standing beside me!
The glass with the grapes is what I did with Mollie's help. 

New MIxed Media

I did another large collage of the longhorn cow that I saw near Kerrville this summer.
I had the other one 'Lunch Time' ready for a show and I sold it, so I did another view to replace it.  It will go to Breckenridge for the Best of the Best Show.

This was very tedious and takes a while to do one like this.  It is 30x40 on stretched Canvas.
I haven't decided on a name yet.

This is a commission I did for someone to give to their hair dresser! I hope he enjoys it as much as I enjoyed creating it!

It is 10x10 on stretched canvas and will hanging diagonally. 

I am teaching a collage workshop Oct.7-8. If interested contact me.
