Spruce Trees

As most of you have probably realized this month is more about color combinations than anything else.  This little watercolor study is about using warms verses cools using the complimentary colors of yellow and violet.

Far Away

Today it has been raining and cloudy all day in North Florida.  There aren't many days we don't see sunshine but today was one of them.  To add insult to injury, my Mother and I both had Doctors appointments in a town over an hour away.  I am so tired after driving in the rain.  I am going to make a pot of decaf coffee and dream of pleasant things far away.
This is one of the little pieces I did when I was playing with the alcohol inks.  I do not feel guilty at all posting it today because it was done within the 30 days...just not this day. Cheers! And pleasant dreams!

Springs series

I really don't like to work on Sundays.  Since I consider my painting work, I have a hard time trying to think about what to paint.  I decided it was time to try alcohol inks. Since I have never used them, it will be like play. They have a mind of their own so it will keep me loose.

I grew up in North Florida where there are many natural water springs that bubble up out of the ground.  They are usually very cold, deep, clear water.  They are connected by caves where divers come from all over the world to explore.  They have always fascinated me.  I am very excited to show you the beginnings of a new series.

This is the first painting in what I am going to call my "Sunday Springs series".  It reminds me of standing on the rocks on the side of the springs with the water bubbling up all around.  I hope you can feel the excitement as I do!  I stand in awe of the things the Lord has made!  Have a blessed day!
