I had fun transforming a photo for a friend into a more artistic rendering. I did a few different iterations to see what appealed and they chose the one closest to the coloration of the actual photo. The plan is to print it as a 14x14" print and gift it to the person depicted in the photo.

It’s beach week, as those of you with my 2023 calendar may have noticed (that’s why this week is covered with little beach paintings). Greetings from Fenwick Island Delaware!
I am playing with watercolors on gessoed wood panels this week. It is so much fun to turn the panel and watch the colors swirl and rush from side to side. More to come.
After doing the acrylic painting of the John Dodd house for that commission, I wanted to see if I could do a watercolor. I ended up doing two. The client chose the acrylic, but I’m pleased with these and they were great learning experiences.
Can you tell what is different between the two besides the coloring of the trees? One of these things is not like the other….
Lookin’ pretty good in a frame! The acrylic is the one that’s been sent to Sacramento I’ve entered the watercolor for the Maryland Federatipn of Art’s upcoming Light And Shadow exhibition. Fingers crossed!
This is the last card I have partially completed. Working on finishing it. Will add an apple.
Will fit an apple in here eventually. Watercolor sunsets are not easy.
Here’s another analog watercolor painting enhanced in Using Procreate. This is from my Tarot Card project but I put an apple on the coffee cup sleeve just for you!
And the original
Original is on the right I think I may add back the yellow to the moon....
