Some changes...

Change is Good

After working on a few watercolors and the black and white portrait, I had a need to revisit these paintings

with a fresh approach. I'm not sure if you can tell what changes I made but I feel like they both needed more expression. I don't like for my paintings to get too tight and felt like a little loosening up would help. Sometimes it really helps to step away and to work on something completely different to get a different perspective to my work. I'm happy with the changes, I hope you are too:)

I'm joining in on Show and Tell Friday here!

New Watercolors

With Spring comes new and fresh ideas. I've dug out my watercolors and am working on a new 

series of refreshing floral watercolors. 

I guess they could be considered illustrations. I also used

some acrylics, pen, and pencil in some of them, so...they could also be considered mixed media.

Two more will be posted soon. 

I'm not sure how long I will continue these...maybe just through Spring. 

It's been forever since I've done watercolors. Quite a change from the preparation and smells that oils possess. While I still love oils, these feels crisp and fresh, kind of like the weather outside today.

More vintage ladies, interiors, and landscapes to come. I'm thinking of maybe doing 

another Venice, or maybe a Parisian landscape!

This painting just has a really romantic quality

 about it. It's probably the pearls.

My weekend is going great. I got some paintings done,

packed some to ship on Monday, then went to Chinese food for dinner with my daughter and her best friend. They're so silly and fun to be around.

I'm really going to miss that when she's gone. I hope everyone

 is having a wonderful weekend!

This painting has just about everything I love... flowers, shells, lemons,the color peach...doesn't get any better than that. It's a small one but I'm planning

 to do a much larger one with a similar feel.

So far daily painting

 is really working for me and is giving the extra push I need to get things done!
