Pansy Party

11.25x17.5 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper that I painted yesterday afternoon, wet in wet. As dry as it is here, had to keep wetting the front and back plus keep a towel over areas not yet touched. I felt sorry for the pansies as hotter days tend to make them droop, wilt, and die, so they can live on in art and have a party doing so!

Petunia Patch

15x22 watercolor on Italia acquerello 140 lb cold press finished today. Using one of many petunia photos taken in April during our plein air garden trips, this one was hard to get going as it is a light/midtone with not that many darks. I might have to go back in and glaze here and there but for the most part this daily painting is done. It is full of discreet abstract shapes of wilted blooms and twisted leaves if you look closely.  Email me kay1971smith@aol.com for more information or visit my blog to purchase via PayPal, credit card, or personal checks http://kaysmithbrushworks.blogspot.com
