Journaling is something I practice....It takes me on my personal journey in my work.
I hope you can enjoy these few snapshots into my art world.....
                           This piece is a combo of ink, pastel, watercolors and gouache . I call it BELLS



                               This one  includes some quick sketches in my new ink pens.

                                
 My final one is a river flowing.  I feel it has a Japanese flair. This piece is done in marker, colored pencils and water soluble chalk pastels.

Tea and Scones

Teapots and sweets are alway a joy to paint, collage or just draw.  Here a few of my watercolors and gouache paintings..I remember as a child going to the neighborhood bakery and my Grandmother buying petite fours, bringing them home and putting on a pot of tea.  Such comforting rituals are always welcoming..perhaps that is one reason for the love I have in collecting and painting teapot still lives

Spring light



I love spring,
Everything seems so magical.
Plants awaking from the long winter,
birds nesting.
These are two of my newest spring paintings/drawings
I used some awesome Inksticks and paint markers on these two.
They are painting on clay board which is backed with massonite.
They are 5x7 and $ 55.00 @or $ 95 for the pair.

Fantasy House paintings

I have been so focused on these Fantasy villages or Houses.  I am not sure where the inspiration is coming from perhaps my sheer happiness of my life right now.  I love playing with the bright colors and patterns.  Its another phase I must go through in my artistic process.  I must say I am enjoying the playfulness of it all.....


                                                   I am having just plain fun experimenting with so many paints in all of these recent paintings.
