January 05, 2021 – Monet’s Garden April Rain in Giverny, Photo to Oil to Watercolors through Three Decades, Part 2
Second of a short series portraying how I parlayed one great photo at Monet’s Garden in Giverny in 2001 into a poster, an oil, and more recently a watercolor (or two, if I can keep my 70 year old uh-huh in gear 😊).

The Old American Artist by Felipe Adan Lerma – Twitter Excerpt Series
Looking back at older work, like my 80s acrylics or 2000s water soluble oils, can be lots of things : sobering 😂 and, when I spot patterns of motifs or preferences in my work, very helpful for me, enabling me to see enduring patterns of interests. The same, it turns out, even with its own…

My Return to Regular Pricing @FineArtAmerica July 2020
It’s been a few months since I started my $1 pricing markup experiment on Fine Art America. It was a worthwhile experiment, where I was hoping to generate more interest in my work in general, plus rack up a few low profit but visibility expanding sales 😊

Aging Gracefully – During Covid-19 – My Paintings on Fine Art America
It’s a tough switch for me, picking up brush with paint vs picking up a camera. Switching from the exactness of line and light captured (even if framed by my eye) by a machine, exquisite as it is — to the amorphous shifting intangible (even if more powerfully felt) world inside me.

New Watercolor Upload to Fine Art America – Fall Color 1, June 2020
It only took me forever to finally post this, actually a few days, but feels like “way” longer, lol! I started it, a simple posting, assuming “no big deal” but got waylaid by a heat index of 118 yesterday, sandwiched by rare Austin summer days to actually walk more than just at daybreak 😊 But…

New Uploads to Fine Art America – Monarch and Starburst Bloom, June 2020 🎨 👩🎨

Aging Through Covid-19, May 16, 2020 – New Paris Watercolor Art
I think if I had to name one important goal I accomplished with this small Paris work, it’s that I stopped much shorter than usual in re to feeling I overdid the image. Some may say I “way” stopped short of overdoing 😂 but I truly like the white & lighter negative spaces.

Aging Through Covid-19, May 14, 2020 – New Watercolor Abstract Impressionist Art

My Most Viewed Images @FineArtAmerica 2nd Week April 2020 😊

Flowering at Dawn – New Watercolor with Absorbent Ground Painting Progress Update 03.13.20 Plus Thoughts on the Virus Crisis 😊
Having interests, passions even, one can pursue, and let’s say pursue relatively easily, is important for everyone, but especially, I think, for young children and for older adults. I’ll let each person decide what an older adult, or a young child, lol, is, age-wise 💕

I’m Reading “ Notan: The Dark-Light Principle of Design” (Dover Art Instruction), Kindle – 1st Impression
