I thought I would play around watercolors and paint some Spring flowers. Backgrounds always throw me a bit. I know what I want, it's just that I don't think watercolors are meant to go this dark. And yet I keep pushing them.

This has definitely been the year of the fish for us. Watching fish is a pleasant, calming experience. Cleaning the tanks is not.

The inspiration for this one was to see what I could do with a very limited pallet.

"Sunrise on the Ridge"

The tornadoes that tore through Tennessee last week still haunt me, especially when our sunrise in Eastern Tennessee that morning was so beautiful. The bad weather was just getting to end of TN. As a result, this morning I found that I had to revisit the images my husband took that morning. These first two paintings are watercolors. Although they show the colors, they really didn't seem to capture the angry, beauty of the sky. The third painting is acrylic.

I used two different watercolor techniques to try to capture the sky.

This was today's project. It was done from an old photograph for my brother's birthday. The pup is his German Short-haired Pointer, Bubby. He grew up to be such a sweet thing, but he is quite the slobber machine. (the dog not my brother) It is amazing how high and how far he can sling that sticky stuff.
