Hummingbird Abstract. Rich. Watercolor.
I‘m still working with different types of abstract. I did this while watching a video. I like the loose colors. I’ve also been working with my palette knives but I thought it best to work in gesso for texture then add color over it later if desired. I’ve got a full…
The Featured Art Gallery Has Been Updated
The second part of ‘Tell Them What I See’ has been updated in the Featured Art Gallery. If spelling is a life test then I’m failing miserably and autocorrect is helping that failure at an alarming rate. I read over some of my entries and was like, what? I didn’t use that…
Community Grabs and Pay it Forward
I’ve updated the Etsy shop with a few new things. I thought I might try digital downloads of tree drawings. Sometimes I see drawings and think, I’d love to paint that. I figure a creative person can take a simple tree drawing, print it on watercolor paper and have some…
High like the waves

The Courage to be Authentic
How cool. This just happened. A person who purchased art from me a few years ago contacted me to be part of a group of artists she knows. I love it when my art isn’t just a passing fancy. I want it to touch people. I want them to enjoy…
Encaustic Abstract Art
Now we’re having fun! I titled this piece “The Constant” because the wax I used is by a company that I’ve been familiar with since the time I could hold a crayon and color on paper. Crayola is a sure, stable and brilliant wax that performs beautifully with encaustic work….
A Beautiful Day
“Beautiful Day” is a small acrylic painting of a little girl carrying a single flower walking through a meadow of wildflowers. When I first started this painting the little girl was at the top of a steep hill holding a small flower. She looked down to the single bud below….
