Summer Days Almost Here

                     Oak Tree

                                                    

I found this great book on Watercolors entitled  Terry's Top Tips for Watercolour Artists by Terry Harrison, and I love it.  Today I practiced some tree techniques from Terry's book.  I found the book very helpful.

 Trees and their shadows.

Whinny

I have not posted in a while.  I have been working on my childrens book, and how I wish I could post the pictures, but I cannot.  Here is a watercolor I worked on today to put into my portfolio.

My daughters Tatum and Capri are taking horseback riding lessons, and this horses name is Whinny.  Isn't she cute?

Colonial Mexican Fountain

Well, Its been awhile since I've posted.  I get into a rut, and then I snap out of it.  This little 9 x 12 painting was fun to make. I used oil paints which I've always had problems with in the past.  I love the brilliance of oil paints though, and I would love to master them better.
