From my photographs of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, the Mediterranean Sea, the North and Baltic Seas, and Lake Erie. I'm not telling which is which....

Each painting is 6x6", framed in a wonderful little black wood frame, that allows you to display the painting on the wall or a tabletop.

Tree Peonies - watercolor paintings from last year

 I have a stack of photographs to use as reference for watercolor paintings, including some tree peonies. I am itching to get started, but other chores get in the way, and I want a few days at least to work on only watercolor. One of the chores is to clean off my painting table. It has become a charcoal drawing table, and the resulting dust would not be a positive addition to my watercolor painting.

I am posting these images that I painted last year. They have a wonderful bulbous look to them. Sort of a cross between a peony and a tulip. 

Continuing education

I have reached the one year anniversary of my education at Ani Academy in Wilkes-Barre, PA. As a long distance student, I complete the exercises of the curriculum, email an image to Victoria Steel, my instructor, and then visit every 6 weeks or so, to work alongside the other students, and listen to words of wisdom from Anthony Waichulis. How I wish I could have done something like this 30 years ago!

 Tony took this photo as I was polishing my first drawing, "Carra".

 "Carra" was included in the Rehs Gallery exhibition "Synesthesia". 

As was "Fly Me To The Moon", below....
