Artist Note

Every Saturday morning

the market is right outside 

my downtown studio. 

I have all the reference material

I could ever need.

BUT

this market scene is from a visit to 

Santa Cruz, CA.

I needed those striped awnings!

. 

Personal stuff...

After fabulous 16 years

 in our Las Cruces, NM home 

it is time to move.

Anyone want a beautiful view...

a 1700sq ft studio or workshop.

As well as a 2600 sq ft house?

Oh, yes, and a swimming pool!

 I am going to be one busy lady!

Watercolor Weekend - Peonies

Peonies

12x9in watercolor on Yupo paper

Trying something larger and different on the Yupo. 

Artist Note.

Still busy, busy...BUT

I saw these peonies in a garden while walking with a friend and 

went and knocked on the door. When the gentleman understood why 

I wanted one to paint, he got a cutter and persuaded me to take a few.

Naturally I had to paint them pretty quickly, and already the 

pink ones are really droopy. 

I am deciding if I should go further with this making it 

more dramatic with some pattern.  

I really enjoy trying 

different approaches with Yupo.  I can wipe out any 

part I want to and start fresh. Very liberating. I also find Yupo

a completely different and difficult surface to work on. 

Only using it twice a week at weekends means it is 

going to take a long time to learn what I can do with it.
