Cabbage Patch

This fun Cabbage Patch is done on Aquabord not watercolor paper.  It has elements so different from painting on paper that it stimulates the mind and forces me to paint and think differently.  I was an interesting challenge and fun.  I will paint on this again ......

The Chill of First Snow

Cold winters are not a part of living in California but for most of the United States mountain region this is a typical winter vista.   Learning to work with  snow as a major part of a painting is challenging ..... I truly enjoyed the process and delighted with the outcome.

Memories

This painting was triggered by a memory challenge.    The question was "what picture would I create if I thought about a childhood vacation."   This visualization  came to mind.  It was  my vacation with my cousins on the cape when I was 15 years old.    I remember the vibrant colors of the mornings and evenings so I have tried to reflect that in this painting.  I had great fun painting remembering a time when only the fun of the day was important and nothing else.
