Here is a denim study the girls and I did in class. A little challenging and a lot of fun (although it's probably who you ask).

Not sure if im done with this one yet, maybe.
I think I will call it "Wash Day" Painted on arches 140 measuring 18 x 24. I actually made the quilt a while back in a quilting class I took. The design is called delectable mountain.

Titled "Lynne's Toy" I just painted this for cousin Lynne's 50th birthday gift, I think she really liked it. It is a picture of her own guitar. I used Arches 140 Cold pressed paper for this one..

Something a little more traditional. "Egg Cups" painted on cold press Arches paper measuring matted 16 x 20.
The girls and I painted this for an art class. I love painting eggs I think we will paint some more next week.

Yet another watercolor on Yupo paper I love this stuff! A nice close up of a beautiful dogwood down the street. This is a smaller piece than I usually do, only measuring 10" x 7". SOLD

Cactus Flower watercolor also painted on yupo paper, this was painted a while back. The photo I worked from was one I took while on a family vaction at the Mission at Capistrano. This painting received a 3rd place prize in the Duxbury Winter Juried Show 2010,1st place in the Post Rd Arts Center Marlboro MA and was also exhibited in Lima Peru at the Art Ambassadors Cultural Exchange Project.

Thankful for the beautiful spring weather we are having right now, this is a painting of a nest on yupo paper.
