This is a half-sheet painting done from a photo reference I took in Maine last summer. It has been sitting in my living room for quite a while while I keep playing with it. I think I need to stop now.
I THINK IT'S GRAND-GLORIOUS!!! SO MUCH GOING ON! THE DETAILING! I love each piece of it Joan! The cabin, the water, those trees! The rocks -- fabulous! fabulous!
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.

Lin - I love having a cheerleader. Thank you!! I worked on this one a long time...not one of the quickies I often do.
If you are still messing with this - STOP! It was perfect when you showed it to me. Sign it and put it in a frame.
