Two New Poppy Watercolor Paintings



Painting Poppies and I couldn't decide what color they should be so I did a second painting.


The red ones are more realistic to me but the pinks are so bright and cheerful!

Work in Progress - Golden Retriever




I am currently working on this 11x14 watercolor of a Golden Retriever. Her name is Halo and she is my parents dog. Halo was named after my late brother Brandon's all time favorite video game "HALO".

She is a beautiful dog, a little hyper, but well behaved. Oh, and a bit spoiled!

Here is a neat fact..... Halo's parents were actually photographed and used in Maine's well known L.L. Bean's catalog.
