Joan..I have to say that I've been SO impressed with your postcards- are you also receiving some too? I'm not familiar with an exchange like this....is it hard to give yours away?
Holly - Yes, I've been receiving postcards too, but slowly. We had 6 months to complete them, but I did mine pretty much one after the other so I'm finished with all 23 way ahead of time. Some of them were hard to let go of, and I wished I had done them larger. I saved copies of all of them on my computer, so I can do similar ones if I want.
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

This one is really nice but, my favorites are still the animals.
I love your sky.
Jeanne - Thanks. You just have a fondness for animals.
Ai - Thanks so much. I had such a fun time doing the sunrises and sunsets. It seems strange now that I've finished the postcards.

These are really incredible! This is another beauty! Again, I really love the water!
Beautiful painting of these seascapes Joan. You are very versatile. People must be thrilled to receive these cards.
Lin - Thanks. It seems strange to not be painting these any more after having done so many.
Robyn - Thank you. I hope people are thrilled. I've never done so many pieces on one theme before.
