Both of these were done at the beach yesterday and are 4 x 6. I try to keep postcards and a few sketching and painting materials in my beachbag so I can paint what I see.
FABULOUS -- and do you see how green with envy I am!! Imagine -- the BEACH!!! I have to tell you, hon I haven't been on the beach in years and years!! SIGH! Thank goodness you paint them and let me enjoy them vicariously!
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.
