About the author: The subject matter that I am interested in is representational. I strive to be thorough and accurate and yet catch what is fleeting and lively. The work I'm most proud of shows life as I see it: fatally flawed, but amazingly beautiful. See Sarah's listing at the Southern Oregon Artists Resource to learn more and make contact.

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.To view examples of Peggy's work or to make contact with the artist, please visit her listing at the Southern Oregon Artists Resource.Going For It & Improvising Sometimes success is showing up and going for it.

My favorite working method is having the model come to your studio many days in a row (nine sessions, unless I lost count) – instead of the way I used to work, which was have the model come once a week for a number of weeks. When you have the model in the room everyday, […] Continue reading Portrait of Beth By Sarah Burns, 136 contributed posts

My latest piece for Smithfields. My working title is Water. Titles -eh. They’re hard. They either very robotic for me, or very silly and embarrassing. I am not a writer. I was playing with echoes in this piece – the male figure and the crab both have bent knees, orange color. The woman has a […] Continue reading Water By Sarah Burns, 136 contributed posts
