Viola



This little painting, 6.75" x 7.5", on  Saunders Waterford series 425gm cold press watercolor paper was the first painting I have done in 2 months. Life has been very busy and not much time for painting. It looks very much like a pansy but is much smaller. It was fun to get back to painting once again.

Poinsettia


This poinsettia was originally painted on a 9x12" sheet of 140 lb watercolor paper. But, really, what can you do with basically a Christmas painting? It looks a bit out of place hanging on the wall in July. So I cropped it down to a 6"x 8" painting and used it as part of the title page for my December Daily book. I finished it at the end of November 2017 but have been too busy to post.
