At Rest With Nature – New Watercolor on Absorbent Ground, May 2020
At Peace With Nature has several firsts for me. One, it’s a 5×7 stretched canvas, another size like my recent 6×12, A Walk Among the Wildflowers, I haven’t done in quite awhile, certainly even further back by maybe even decades, lol! It’s an interesting size, being small, yet enabling and enhancing the sense of length…

A Walk Among the WildFlowers – New Watercolor on Absorbent Ground, May 2020
As one can tell by my photo below, I took a few liberties, but to some extent, that happens whether I plan it or not, lol 😂 But I like the result too much to alter anything on it. Another version, another time, will elicit a different response, and I do think this is one…

Aging Through Covid-19, May 17, 2020 – Sunday Rest with Review of Art Pieces to Improve
The current work, for now titled Dancing Free, below the Paris painting, shows how the transparent ground “clouds up”, creating the soft streaking across the black gesso.

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
“… there was a point, decades ago, I finally realized I had this tug-a-war going on within me : translate an image to paint (realistically faithful to the photo or plein air scene), or go abstract, usually way abstract 😊 ”

Aging Through Covid-19, May 07, 2020 – New Watercolor Dancer Art
Dancing Between the Lines…It doesn’t have the sparse clean contrast of my previous 3 watercolors on black absorbent ground. This also is on white absorbent ground and my challenges are very different.

Aging Through Covid-19, May 05, 2020 – New Watercolor Dancer Figure Art
Dancer in Moonlight is similar, created with M. Graham white gouache, and applied in varying intensities t create shape and form, and of course, ultimately, effect!

Aging Through Covid-19, May 03, 2020 – Watercolor Still Life Painting Updated
I debated whether to share some more +/- Covid related articles, or put up some of my more recent watercolors on absorbent ground paintings, and considering I was picked as May Artist of the Month by Creative Arts Society in Austin, I chose the latter 😊
