Key West Cottage


I'm moving along on my Vacation exchange paintings. This is 4 x 6 done in ink & watercolor. It is a building I photographed in Key West, Florida. I love the vibrant colors they use on the buildings there and with the tropical foliage it makes a great place to paint.

North Rim View



Here is another 4 x 6 ink and watercolor done for my Vacations exchange on WetCanvas. I used a reference photo that I took (one of hundreds) when I visited the Grand Canyon a few years ago. I find the Grand Canyon a difficult subject to paint. There is too much landscape and it is difficult to convey the depth of the view or make each group of rocks stand apart from the others. I was happy with the way this came out.

High Road from Taos


Here is another 4 x 6 ink & watercolor that I did for the Vacation exchange on WetCanvas. I use a reference photo that I had taken leaving Taos. I love the rustic barn in the field of dry grasses.

Angel Falls



4 x 6 also done for the Vacation exchange on Wet Canvas. I believe my reference photo was also from Yosemite.
