A Few More Older Paintings, While I Regroup

My Favorite Books watercolor on Arches


Cherry Pie watercolor on Arches 11x15"


Fall Zen watercolor on Arches


Iris Leaves watercolor on Arches 11x30" - NFS


Meditation watercolor on Arches 11x15"

Here are a few more paintings I have done in the last months.
Leaves and stones, titled "Meditation"...another favorite subject. I have an idea for a large, mandala type painting like this...just thoughts...
"Cherry Pie" ...a happy accident...dropped a big ol' brush of Aliz on the paper...Voila! Cherry juice!
Another Autumn Zen painting "Iris Leaves"...loved how the red leaves had fallen into the iris leaves, and curled around them. And an untitled leaf painting...my backyard is a wealth of beautiful paintings
And my favorite childrens' books...Beatrix Potter, A.A. Milne's 'Now We Are Six', and The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.
I have a few other book paintings that I will share. I love books. I wish I could eat them...but I just read them and paint them. I even have children...aged 12 & 13...who READ BOOKS!! Exciting, or what!! Yeah...will wonders ever cease.
Let me know your thoughts...not all of them of course...just a select few...

Happy accident, indeed, with the cherry juice! This painting is juicy and lush - the background is rich and has such depth. Mmmmm...good! And always love the Zen paintings!
