Here are my latest efforts, mainly at AVA Thursday meetings, although I frequently do the drawing the previous day. I find this often works best rather than drawing and painting in one session.

Jenny Wren 16" x 11" watercolour




Molly Spotted Elk - Penobscot Tribe 1903 15" x 11"



Busy Bee (Wasp Actually) 15" x 11"

Nice orange...what orange is that?

would your style work on a hotpress paper?

Transparent (or Translucent) Orange from Schmincke or Permanent Orange from Lukas. same pigment P)71. I think Daniel Smith offer it as well.

I have done a few on hot press when I was given a half used pad of Arches. You do get a different effect so it \s worth trying.

Busy Bee and the parrot are among my favorites EVER, of your work. Nicely loose, with enough detail to add sparkle. Wow.

Thanks Silvermom. As usual my paintings are a mixed bag.
