Hand Online Class

I love hands. I always look at peoples hands.  I believe they tell a story.
I saw a class offered. Just 6 sessions and I have really enjoyed it. The only thing is they are done with acrylics and I hate to wash brushes.

SWA Show

'Thumbs Up' was accepted into the SWA show in Ft.Worth.  It is the Society of Watercolor Artist.
I am excited and honored to included, esp with a portrait!  This cute young man was our waiter in Albuquerque NM last year.  I asked if if I could photo him, and he gave me the Thumbs up sign.
He seemed thrilled I wanted his photo.

New Work

I have been working on some portraits as well as some other ideas.  I have already done a paper collage of this girl from Memphis but I wanted to do a watercolor of her. So far I have named it 'Memphis' like the other one until I can think of something else!
The clothes line is a painting from a clothes line I saw in Italy. The title is 'Full Moon'
THe bottom one is 'Purple Cactus' painted using watercolor and gouache.

Marty

Marty is from New Mexico and such a happy fun lady! She let me take some pictures of her. I enjoy painting portraits and it was fun to do this one.  I tried to keep up with the steps.

The Tattoo

My cousin was at the beach and someone took a great photo of her. I ask if I could try to paint it. I am not as happy with it as I would like, and I may try to do it again. Staci is so pretty, and was fun trying to portray her.  This is watercolor on Fabriano watercolor paper.


Two New Portraits

I really enjoy the portraits, they are a challenge to really get a likeness!  The man was in Cabo, waiting on the dinner cruise, and the woman was in Memphis on the street.
