A blog about my art, my life and thoughts along the way. Saturday, October 1, 2011. Earlier this week I treated myself to dinner at a wonderful little diner on the south side of this island I live on. I'm sure the waitress thought I was very odd taking pictures of the salt and pepper shakers but I thought it would be a fun painting and it was! This is a beautiful piece of work. I came across your blog looking for ideas for watercolor.Im just getting started and this is very inspirational! Steely Dan - Aja.

A blog about my art, my life and thoughts along the way. Saturday, January 29, 2011. Faster than a flying frisbee. The last few weeks I've recorded the new tv series "The Cape" and last night I finally got to watch them and while I was watching I did this little sketch of my Australian Cattle Dog Rainey and thought about how much she looks like a masked superhero herself. "faster than a flying frisbee - able to leap tall couches in a single bound". Sunday, January 23, 2011. Soaking in a little sun, ahhh.

A blog about my art, my life and thoughts along the way. Sunday, July 31, 2011. Fortune Teller" is my entry for this week's Daily Paintworks Challenge. The challenge was to use a black and white photo and pay close attention to values. In order to do that I did a black and white graphite underdrawing before adding the layers of watercolor. This challenge was put forth by one of my favorite watercolor artists, Belinda Del Pesco and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to give it a whirl! Wish You Were Here".
