Boat WIP
September 12, 2011
This is what I did two Saturdays ago. I am trying to make it a habit to go to Flavor’s Cafe and Wine Bar to paint with Lynn once a week. The week leading up to this particular Saturday Joe came to visit and my classes at the community college started. (I am taking [...]

Grams Update
August 26, 2011
If you will remember this post, I showed you a WIP that had a terrible palette. I worked on it a bit and I’ve decided to scrap it. I think it looks better now, but it’s not the direction I want it to go. Perhaps when I start over I will continue to work on [...]

Note To Self:
August 15, 2011
Cadmium Red, Windsor Yellow, and Cobalt blue may look like a bright palette, however, it turns into a dead palette. Exhibit A. I believe I will be changing this color palette to French Ultra Marine, New Gambouge, Permanent Alizarin Crimson. Exhibit B

30 Minute Studies
August 6, 2011
These are both 30 minute sketches of my niece. I’m hoping she decides to model for me on a weekly basis, but I think she discovered it’s harder than it looks. She had a hard time holding these poses for the full 30 minutes. I am pretty happy [...]

Watercolor Sketch: Oranges
February 26, 2011
As I was making my breakfast I became enamored with the reflection of the oranges in the toaster. I kept thinking about it and finally brought it all into the living room and set down to paint. I didn’t really care much about the toaster or even making it look like a reflection. I just [...]

For Colored Girls.
October 26, 2010
Last night I dragged Joe to see Secretariat. (Don’t judge, sometimes a feel good movie is just what I want.) I went to get Joe a slushee (he did agree to see the movie with me after all) and I was stopped in my tracks by the movie poster directly outside of our theater. (Just [...]

First Solo Show
October 9, 2010
The morning of the show my Grandma and I sat in her living room painting our nails together. We hadn’t done that since I was tiny. Next up was the pizza party my Uncle put together for me. Delicious food and wonderful people gathered at my other Grandma’s to hang out before my show. My [...]
