This was done for the WDE on WetCanvas this past weekend from a reference by Helen. I didn't know what most of these objects were, but it was fun to paint the metals. This is 4 x 11.
Top Shelf is surely top drawer, Joan. Love the garage-like sense to this one...Not one's usual source of inspiration, I am guessing, but it sure works!
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.

Joan that's just amazing. You keep inspiring me to paint better and I'll promise to do the same and keep posting journal stuff.
WOW! You really did this so well!!
It's overcast and grey here -- damp and yucky --- hope you get out of the house soon, though this still life is fantastic!

Teressa - Thanks!!!
Lin - Thank you. I enjoy the WDE to see what it unusual to paint.
Sherry - Thanks! There was a second shelf to the reference, but that was pushing it.
Joan, this is great. I love the colors and you got the metal look.
