These small 5 x 7 watercolor pieces were a study in color inspired by an article found in water color magazine. Using Triads of color each one was painted wet-in-wet, allowing the colors to interact, and then lifting color using dry brush and paper toweling. The triad used in each study is listed below the painting. Triad: Phthalo blue, Alizarin Crimson, Cadium Yellow Pale Ultramarine Blue, Cadium Red Light Manganese Blue Nova, True Red, Cadium Yellow Dark Cobalt Blue, Rose Madder, Lemon Yellow Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson, Raw Sienna Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson, Raw Sienna

I was given some mixed media paints as a birthday gift last year. Inspired by a good friend, I have finally taken the plunge to try them out. I love how these paints take on a life of their own. I have created the 3 pieces below; each on a 5" x 5" canvas board. I hope to incorporate these paints into some mixed media projects that are currently in the works.
This 8 x 10 watercolor was painted for donation to the Sound Park Heights Civic Association. It will be raffled at a silent auction to be held during their annual cocktail party. This whimsical scene was inspired by the 6th hole at the Reeves Park Sandy Pond Golf Outing.
This 8 x 10 watercolor was inspired by the beautiful Westbury Gardens. I just loved the Japanese lanterns that hung from this tree. This plein-air painting was done during an outing with the Art League of Nassau County in June.
