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.
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.

BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL, JOAN! I've been to Taos a long time ago -- a gorgeous place that you've captured perfectly!!!
Stay safe, hon, the rains and winds are heading your way -- heavy rains and flooding ... be careful!
Thanks. Taos was such a nice place to visit...the town was so different from here.
