TEXAS TECH BELL TOWER IV by Carol Peterson

  "Texas Tech Bell Tower IV" by Carol Peterson 15" x 11" watercolor and gouache $225.00 unframed   This is the fourth time I have painted this basic image.  This time I made the sky blue which I didn't do in the first three.  I started with a fluid acrylic underpainting and used gouache for the blue in the sky.  Everything else was painted with watercolor.

JOLLY RANCHER by Carol Peterson

"Jolly Rancher" by Carol Peterson (carolpeterson@suddenlink.net) 15" x 11" watercolor $300 This is a demo I did for a meeting of the West Texas Watercolor Society in January.    This man was at the Cowboy Symposium, Sept. 2012.  He seemed to be having a wonderful time at his chuckwagon.  This is a watercolor over a fluid acrylic underpainting.  The underpainting is very visible on the right hand side.

DOMINICAN DANCER by Carol Peterson

Dominican Dancer by Carol Peterson ( carolpeterson@suddenlink.net ) www.carolpetersonart.com 24" x 22" watercolor $800 This is a dancer who posed for pictures while we were in the Dominican Republic.  She seemed to enjoy her dancing very much and picture taking very much.  The painting is a watercolor over an acrylic underpainting.  I find that watercolor is brighter over a light fluid acrylic underpainting.
