Roadside Cemetary, Rt 309


watercolor, 12x18 For sale, $45.00

I have wanted to paint a cemetary for a while. I am attracted by the iron grates and the beautiful granite and landscaping. But then I begin and I feel morbid. This time I kept going and I think the outcome is rather hopeful. The colors overwhelm the suggestion of grave markers I guess.

Marriott Surf Club's Lazy River...


watercolor, 4x6

Sitting along the lazy river at Marriott's Surf Club in Aruba, I painted this little scene. I love how the view is through the palm tree.

Another Aruba sketch from Moomba Beach


watercolor, 4x6"

Another sketch inspired by Aruba and Moomba Beach. This was on prepped paper - a paper laid out ahead of time with washes. I like the creativity it adds to these quick sketches. It helps to keep them fresh and loose.
