#WorldWatercolorMonth July 27 “Free as the Bees”

IMG_20160726_151255#WorldWatercolorMonth July 27  “Free as the Bees”!  As in I did this totally free hand without drawing until outlining everything and adding buzz fuzz with my Faber Castell PITT artist pen at the end.  There is the perfect amount of spatter and fun bits to keep me happy.  Although these guys resemble bumble bees the hard working honey bees are in trouble so maybe this will remind everyone to protect our bees.  They aren’t free.  Have a fabulous day!  PEACE

As #WorldWatercolorMonth nears the end I will have to say I will miss it.  That being said I am sure Mr. Charlie O’Shields will come up with another stellar idea for next month.  Something for us all to look forward to.


#WorldWatercolorMonth July 26 “The Monarch”

IMG_20160725_163608#WorldWatercolorMonth July 26 “The Monarch”  Of the butterfly variety.  Based loosely on a photo a friend took.  Another quick one or as quick as the detail would let me.  Complicated creatures but so lovely to gaze at.

#WorldWatercolorMonth #SelfieArt Day July 25

IMG_20160725_085339#WorldWatercolorMonth and #SelfieArt Day  July 25  So here I am being brave again!  Not only have I tackled a selfie but I am showing myself swimming!  Of course it helps I am in the beautiful waters of the Caribbean.  Grand Turks Caicos.  By now all of you should know I love the water.  Whether it is some far away winter escape or here on the sunny shores of the Shuswap.  Most photos of me involve the water some where.  So why not paintings too?

#WorldWatercolorMonth July 18 “Puffin”

#WorldWatercolorMonth July 18 “Puffin”. Only time for another quick sketch again today. These brightly colored billed birds have always intrigued me.  Until I started looking at photo’s of them I didn’t realize what doleful eyes they had. Next time I hope to have a bit more research on them to share with you.  Happy Monday! PEACE

IMG_20160717_122527#WorldWatercolorMonth July 17 “Red Bike”  A flash back to a favored bike.  As a child I was treated to a brand new bike of my very own, once.  It was a beauty.  I loved that bike.  A very quick sketch while taking a break from work this day.  Hope you are having a lovely Sunday.  PEACE
