Artist's Mecca

Sennelier makes some of the world's best pastels.  Their shop is in Paris and I was lucky enough to visit and shop.  I snapped a photo at dusk of a couple walking by in the rain.  This pastel painting is not quite finished but I wanted to share it.

Cowpokes to Come

This summer will be devoted to Western themed artworks of mine and students.  I'm posting one I painted a few years ago that's called, "Cowboy Wannabes".

Flash Card Art



A friend gave to me a box of old elementary flash cards.  I have racked my brain thinking of something creative to do with them.  Being made of card stock, they are stiff enough to take watercolor paint.  I doodled some paisley designs on them and painted over with a very thin brush of watercolor paints.  Certain words can make pretty strong statements.  Enjoy!
