Waterfall Beautiful



12" x 9" Water Color on Aquabee Watercolor paper.
The 2nd school project of the year was to paint a landscape with watercolor. I thought this would be easy but was very surprised at how challenging it was. In the end I think it turned out pretty cool.

School House


12" x 9" Water Color on Aquabee Watercolor paper.
The first school project of the year was to practice with various watercolor techniques. For this project we had to choose 3 of the 6 we learned and paint anything we wanted. I chose an abstract piece I call "School House". I used the techniques "wet on wet", "wet on dry" and "crayon texture".

Campfire



4 1/2" x 6" Water Color on Aquabee Watercolor paper.
This began as an experiment in the watercolor technique "dry brush". I like how it turned out and it reminded me of a campfire.
