A Child is Born

I have painted several Nativities.  This one was fun.  I used the same technique  on the background
of lifting out color and repainting.

Christmas Mail

Christmas Mail
I still love painting Christmas images.  I love the bright colors and happy thoughts about what this season means to me.
I love getting mail so this is a fun one for me.

In Search of the King

I love the wise men.  Looking for the King!  The traveled a long way. What faith they had!

This is painted with acrylic on heavy paper.

You will find the Baby wrapped in Swaddling Cloths

I have been working on a few new Christmas Images.  I try to have some new ones each year.
This one is done with acrylics. I am still experimenting with different ideas. It is painted on heavy paper.

Sunset Dance

I am still working on hands, and using acrylic paint.  I am not used to using acrylics so is hard for me to do detail. I do love brush strokes though. I don't get them with watercolor so much. 
The photo of this belongs to my cousin's son, and I loved it so much I wanted to try to paint it.
It has hands, as well as the couple that are so cool!
This is a large painting. 22'x30' and is on Strathmore 100 lb drawing paper.  I love the way it paints and stays flat. 

Confetti Flower

I had a watercolor I wasn't happy with so I worked it over with some gouache and collage! It is one of my favorites now.  It is in my Confetti collection now.  I am having a 2020 Calendar printed of 12 of them.  It was hard to choose which ones to use.  They can be framed if anybody wanted to do a small grouping of them.

Autumn

Another hand painting.  This one was very hard. I’m sure they are not right but have to
Move on.  We are working on exaggerated hands so that why so much emphasis on them.
For some reason this reminded me of falling leaves while
I worked on it, so I named it Autumn.
