This is 7 1/2 x 11 done in watercolors and ink for the VPO. The city they selected for February is San Francisco. This was done from a view from Google Maps. You may want to check out the other work for this month.
Oh did you find a pretty one to paint -- and what a fine job you did! Steps and gingerbread and all!!! LOVE IT! We're having a ton of rain ... flood warnings!
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.

I always wanted a house like this one. Lovely painting, Joan.
Lin - Thanks. Hope the rain isn't too bad. We had a lot of snow.
Sherry - Thanks so much. I love old victorian houses.
