I am presently visiting my brother in Kennesaw, Georgia for a few days. This was painted in a local square. It is nice to see the trees and flowers blooming everywhere. This is 4 x 6.
This is wonderful, Joan!! Warm, filled with flowers and wonderful color!! I SO HOPE you're having a great time -- and glad you were able to figure out how to upload to your site --- I hope the pollen is better there than here!
And I love that it is still called a "square." Sigh...These olden day holdovers just make me so happy. The painting is beautiful, Joan. I am so glad to know you are having a good time and finding time to paint!!
Brilliant painting, and oh, my word, I go to Kennesaw often to visit my sister who lives there. I is nice. Did you go to Trackside? See the General? Eileen
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 - Thanks! We're having fun and getting in some painting and sketching too. My car is green from all the pollen.
Sherry - Thanks. I wish we had more time there. It would have been fun to sketch some of the stores around the square.
