When you wish upon a star...new watercolor painting


For the past couple of weeks I have been working on trying to make a few watercolor paintings that could
easily be made into art prints and greeting cards. I have also been on a kick making art that includes stars and the night sky, so naturally the man in the moon popped into my mind and this was the result!

Hope you enjoy it :)

Black Bear Watercolor Painting



A new watercolor and gouache painting of a lumbering black bear.
I like to venture out of my normal routine and try painting a new animal
every once and awhile, since most of the subject matter in my art are birds.




I really enjoyed painting this bear, I hope you like him!

Owl Expressions - An Original Watercolor Painting

Hi there!

Woohoo! I managed to get another watercolor finished the other day.
This one is a combination of watercolors and gouache on cold press watercolor paper.
 
I was inspired to make this owl painting for one because they are so darn cute, and 
also because owlets have so many different funny expressions. Anyway I hope you enjoy it!

New Watercolor and Gouache Painting

 A new watercolor painting of a red breasted grosbeak.

I got to see one of these beauties frequenting my bird feader in the backyard over the past few weeks.
We live in Florida, and I am discovering that a lot of really interesting birds migrate through here! 
This little painting is made using both the normal watercolor paints as well as gouache (opaque watercolors).
I really like using a combination of both, and think that is adds a more illustrative feel to the piece.

I hope you enjoy it!





Prints as well as the original will be for sale soon on my Etsy shop.

Hope you have a great day!
