Finished a watercolor that I started of
Jesse a couple of years ago.  Experimenting
with backgrounds.  I painted the background
with watercolor, then layered some type and 
Jesse.

more practice

more people practice..Jesse and Milly
Jesse was on the computer and Milly, sitting
in the chair with her, was leaning on her shoulder
watching what Jesse was looking at.
Milly really loves Jesse.

Watercolors and new Etsy listing

When we went to the beach, I decided to try and paint
while we were there.  This was a relatively quick painting.
It isn't finished but I enjoyed working on it.


 This is a watercolor I did from a photograph my nephew 
Christopher took.  Skies are difficult in watercolors.

 This is a new piece I've listed in my Etsy shop:
 I did it on a recycled Japanese 
wooden tea set lid.

Working on...



 Clay piece, nothings glued down yet and it's
far from finished.  You can see the antique backplate
Chuck bought when we went to the Mt. Dora Art 
Festival.  I'm not sure I'm going to use it in this but
I do like it with the clay tiles.


The rose and antique bottle with camera case, I've gotten
a little further on.  Don't want to do anymore ornate
bottles.  Way too time consuming.

Decided to start a new blog more focused on my art.  I'm getting ready to open an Etsy shop so I thought it might be a good idea.  Been putting this off for a while but it's time to get started!
