Watercolour Paintings....a little of this..a little of that






Hello friends! Hope everyone's weekend was eventful !

I have been in my studio busy painting. I find it so relaxing. Having fun!!

The above watercolour is my first portrait painting of our beloved Max.
He passed three years ago and was such a loved dog and greatly missed.








I'm in love with Magnolia trees, so this one is painted with watercolour pencils.











I call this one Forgotten....I must work on my drawing skills....









The Thistle..worked with watercolour pencils and paint. This one is card size .
Thought I would try my hand at making some painted cards for the unexpected.










Love, love , love Chinese Lanterns, hope mine come back this year!









This one I worked on last night !

Abstract watercolour Geraniums!



I took up this hobby last winter to pass the time while dealing with back issues.
I found that it was so relaxing and my mind would wonder off and the pain was less 
severe. 

I know my drawing skills need work.... don't kid myself ..It  need lots of work...
but I'm not a Picasso  artist .

Just a gal having fun painting the while away!

Maybe I should take some lessons EH!!


Thanks so much for all the lovely comments!

Have a great day!

  5. Well you may think you're not a Picasso, but I think you're pretty darn close. I don't have a drawing gene in my body! So, I'm always impressed when I see artwork that I can at least recognize. Ha! My dad is a great artist, but that gene did not get placed in me. I don't understand how to make drawings look dimensional.
