"Singing the Blues" acrylic, 6 x 6 on wood

I'm just playing around....I have 3 of these "gessobord" panels...they are 6 x 6 x 2 inches....You can just stand them on a table top, or hang them....now I need to paint her 2 mates so I can have a trio. :)

Tara's Tulips Watercolor and colored pencil 15 x 11


...a detail photo.

We hosted a wedding shower for a friend of ours over the weekend...Someone brought these beautiful tulips and left them at the house...I don't know who left them, and I assume they were for the bride to be, who forgot to take them with her with all the commotion. I decided to paint them because the leaves just seemed especially animated! :) Tara's Tulips was a fun and welcome break from the large acrylic of Turnberry I've been working on...Thanks for checking in!

Work in progress (wip) acrylic 24 x 40

Still plugging away at Don's painting...I wanted to have it done by the weekend...don't think it will be, unfortunately....I have to resolve the lower left side...adding texture within the already stated value range...(values are the lightness or darkness of a color...as if you are removing the color and looking at it in black and white)

Have a great weekend! The weather here is just glorious today....which is a big reason why this painting won't be done. :)

"Ranunculus" 8 x 10 watercolor and colored pencil

Another gorgeous day here in Oxford, Michigan....the garden clean-up is calling me (after a bit more painting time)

this is a work in progress (wip)...24 x 40 inches...acrylic.

My husband (Don) took a golfing trip to Scotland summer before last. He snapped some photos while playing and I'm painting from one of his pictures....always a huge challenge for me, not having been there to see for myself....It was one of those cloudy then sunny then rainy days....So I guess this is (or will be) about the weather, rather than the golf course. I have a devil of a time photographing acrylics. The sheen of them gives my camera fits....
