About the author: I begin my watercolor paintings with an idea and a drawing. I build the painting layer by layer, drawing lines and shapes, looking for rhythm and feeling. My color sense is a reflection of my childhood in New Mexico fused with colors of my home in the Northwest. My goal is to go beyond the surface to find joy, wonder and a bit of mystery. I have shown my works in galleries, juried, group and solo shows in Washington, Oregon, Montana and New Mexico. My paintings are in private collections in the west, New York and Norway.

What I’m learning today: how to paint with watercolors while standing at an easel. Learning: Watercolor & Vertical Easel. Greetings! And, may I say there is much to be learned while painting on paper held vertical by an easel. My usual mode is more horizontal. What do you need to learn, you might ask. How […]

On using a limited palette, good idea or bad idea? Or, just an idea? Intentions. Greetings!

One is the value of challenging one’s […]

My “big idea” or intentions: use line as the dominate design feature; subordinate shape. Another Cappuccino Variation. Greetings! Its Day 8 of the #30paintingsin30days challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta Studios! And, its another version of my cappuccino cup and frothing pitcher. The fun thing about working variations on a theme is that I never know […]

It is indeed Day 5 of the #30paintingsin30days challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta Studios. Experimenting With Color. I like to study color and color meaning. For example, in this piece I think of […]
