Cactus Cottage -

Sunday, April 8th, 2007

Cactus Cottage – 5.5″ x 8″ watercolor Here’s an impressionist sketch of a cottage garden with a picket fence- inspired by a street we walked down in Capistrano. Very quick and loose, with a minimum of explicit detail. I like the rambunctious feeling of it. In the midst of all the cottage flowers mixed with [...]

I did this quick painting yesterday as [...]

Monday, April 2nd, 2007

Scottish castle – watercolor on paper 8″ x 8″ Back in the 90s we went to England on business and had the opportunity to drive up to Skye, the home of my distant ancestors. This castle was nearby. I’m sure it would be prettier on a bright sunny day , but somehow mist and brooding [...]
