Nude Watercolor

I have been stepping outside the box and trying something new.  A nude watercolor with deep black background.

I am trying something different... to add a bit of mystery and intrigue to my swimmer series.

The black will be melding in more to the reflection in days to come.

I've worked on it so hard.. that I'm fatigued with it.  I'm taking a break from it now.

Look for the final version in the days to come.

Working on a koi fish painting.  The format fits the exact message of flow and blend of color.

I love koi... and I would love a waterpond.

Maybe one day in the future... there will be one in my yard.  [wish]


Enjoy!

Whitewater Wisconsin Workshop Oct 2012

A wonderful workshop was concluded this week in Whitewater Wisconsin.  The people, the facilities, the food, the weather- couldn't have been more perfect!

Thank you-- to Marilyn -  for making the effort to put such a great event together.

I had a terrific time-- meeting all the new students.  Everyone got the "glow"!


Looking forward to seeing all good paintings from them in the future.

Good bye Geneseo ILLINOIS! Hello Whitewater Wisconsin!

Workshop in Geneso Illinois is complete!

What a great time and GREAT group!  all 17 strong!

I had a wonderful time working in this rural agricultural town.  The ambiance was so welcoming.

The glorious windfarm windmills and sunset stood as sentinels of change.

Thank you to all who made this possible-- Sandy, Sue, Geneseo Art League!

I look forward to seeing you all again!

Geneseo IL Watercolor Workshop!

I have spent the last two days working with a fine group of painters-- 18 in all.... at the Geneseo Art League!

They invited me up to do a workshop-- and we have been having a good time.

Geneseo is in the middle of rich farm country--- hogs, corn, soybeans, John Deere, etc.

This small quaint town used to be the Hog-Capital of the Country!


Will post more pics later today... but for now.. .time to go PAINT~!!

New Catalogue of Printed Works

I was asked to be in a fine art print art catalogue this Fall.  They printer chose 20 of my paintings to be made into prints.  These prints will be on canvas, paper, glass, metal, and epoxy resin finish.

I can't wait to see some samples.

The prints will be marketed nationwide -- but only at trade shows.  They aren't available to the public.
