Here is my workspace at the moment. A card table with an  Ott Day Lite, Xacto sharpener, colored pencils, water brushes, etc, Watercolors in the little white box is a field kit I use at home or out plein air, the orange thing underneath is a note paper holder that I have paper towel pieces for use with the watercolors.  And other various things including the prerequisite animal underneath with the trash can. 

Laura Ferlita posted hers and suggested we post ours.  I couldn't figure out how to post it on her blog or where she posted on Facebook so posting mine here.

Bruno




I did a birthday card for a friend yesterday. I used a photo taken by Andy Mathis a veterinarian from Georgia. He is very gracious and let me use his photo of Bruno, one of his clients. I saw this photo quite a while ago when he posted it and loved this little guys face so much. Here is Bruno. Done in watercolors, colored pencils, and micron pen. Thank you Andy and thank you to Bruno's family.

Boles Nursery & A Local Photographer's Home

Here are two more pages I have painted from photos I have taken at our plein air outings.  These are from a private home and a plant nursery.  The one of Boles Nursery is watercolors and pens.  The other is just watercolors.  It's nice to have little bits and pieces of the places our group has visited doing plein air.

Happy Birthday Bill

Today would have been my husband's 64th birthday.  Next month will be 4 years since he passed.
