WOYWW and a variety of watercolor bits

 

Sorry I haven't been posting, but I've been busy getting ready for my trip to Canada.  I leave tomorrow!  So I won't be around for about six weeks, but hoping that I will get a bit of painting in when I am away.  In the meantime I will leave you with this.  This is what's been happening on my work station since I last posted.  Enjoy!



Sometimes I just get carried away . . . a little watercolor which is being sent to an art auction/benefit/gallery showing in NYC.  It's only six by six inches, which was a bit of a challenge, but one that I enjoyed!

 

Next was a little painting I did after the Spring General Conference of my church.  It is for the Young Women.   It's also a watercolor, and contains a fab quote from a past YW President and all of the Young Women's Values.



Another small watercolor.  I am practicing doing faces in watercolor.  I think I am getting better at it.  In any case I am enjoying myself!

 

And finally another water colour f a girl on a swing.   I'd like to fly like a Dove too.

This is the last you will hear from me for about six weeks.   Hop on over to The Stamping Ground to see what all the other talented people have been up to this week!

Bye bye for now!

Something completely different

This is something completely different I have been working on. I have done a collage/mixed media piece, using inks and washes, scrap book papers etc. Those are the Young Women's Values in the background. It takes courage and testimony to be a Young Woman in our church and to stick with the standards. It takes daring to embrace being different and to live it. The little character is one of my first characters I ever painted, Little Miss Sunshine. She looks a bit different of course as my style has evolved somewhat since the early days. It wasn't as hard to paint on top of the collage as I thought it would be and I am quite pleased with how it all turned out. Of course I will have to sell the original.



It is an 8 by 8 inch boxed canvas, with wrap around sides, nail free. Completely finished all the way around and ready to hang. Shipped with care, first class and to anywhere in the world. Created in a smoke free and animal friendly home. Contact me to find out more.
