This weeks watercolor class "Fall Harvest" I raided my window boxes for the subject matter. Those are called Turban squash, they were easy and fun to paint, I'm told they are edible too, but I think I'm only interested in painting them for the time being.

Geraniums on yupo paper. A fun and easy yupo exercise, I started by painting the background around my drawing and when it was semi dry I lightly painted the white petals that I had previously drawn and lifted a few from the background to finish.

Lilly Pond watercolor practice for an upcoming class. I was taking pictures this week at the cranberry bogs behind Patriot Place and was inspired to try a couple of Lily pieces. It was such a beautiful and serene spot SOLD

"Silver Drawer" won Excellance in Watercolor this weekend at the North Shore Art Associations Juried show! Oh, yeah for me! it is one of my favorite new pieces.
I am a New England watercolor artist. I began painting in 1997 and enjoy painting everyday.I work on both Arches cold and hot pressed paper and yupo paper. I enjoy showing my work in local galleries and juried shows. When I am not painting I'm either gardening or painting old furniture.
I hope you enjoy my work and I welcome your comments.
