+ 2 more house watercolors

 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!

Ugh palette knife painting is SO HARD! Had to touch up with a brush and I’m still not thrilled.

Here Comes The Sun

Hi all. Have you done your good deed for the day? Yes? No? Regardless, please consider voting for my 2 paintings in Maryland Federation of Art’s “Here Comes The Sun” virtual exhibition. I didn’t realize it was this kind of thing and so am late to the mark rallying the troops. Of course what is really measured is largely people’s connectedness but I sure would like to give the established favorites a run for their money! Thanks!
