Winter Oranges

In this 8"x12" watercolor I layered washes and splattered paint. It seems like vibrant, warm colors are useful in winter.  It was also inspired by the Solstice.

Kite Tetrad #2

This is an exercise working with the colors: red orange, yellow green, blue green and blue violet on the color wheel. When you draw lines connecting the four colors on the wheel, it forms a kite.

The work has stalled out, but I am searching for answers to problems. New favorite book: Watercolor Mixing: the 12-Hue Method by Christopher Willard.

Bob



This one was dubbed "Bob."

Into the Light



Donkey: "Don't die, Shrek. And if you see any long tunnels, stay away from the light." "But mama that's where the fun is." Bruce Springsteen

This is a big painting by my standards and is 3' X 3'.
