He was a sweet, wonderful horse, a rescue.

A little collection of daily watercolors. After beginning these little 10" x 10" paintings, I decided I needed to watercolor daily (whenever possible)!

Challenge - Pet as Character

This is Teddy, my daughter's poodle mix, a little guy with a big heart & a great personality. He's a character all by himself. We always laugh at his funny expression which changes from a smile to a weird but hilarious straight line. I love this little guy!

Night & Day

Hello! This is my first contribution to Watercolor Wednesdays. Thanks for letting me join in.  :)

Colors of Fall

October was unseasonably cool. The newsmen claimed it had been the wettest one on record, too.

One day, late in the month, the sun battled its way through the ever present clouds and shined briefly on the world.

Juan and Levont took advantage of the break to burn off energy at the neighborhood playground in the watery sunlight.

Field Day

Tug o War

I don't think I adjusted the saturation on this enough when I scanned it. A little washed out? If I can just get these last 4 days of school behind me, I'll see if I can focus. I keep looking up and I'm behind on creating. Hey- It's like I'M in the tug of war.

Final Prairie dogs

The image is brighter than it scanned in as a jpg.

Play

She opened that weekend to excellent reviews!
This is how is I used to play... but maybe the audience wasn't quite as cooperative!!

Music Lesson

It takes a whole lotta lessons to become a master of the blues...

Happy Holidays to all of you. A warm welcome to our newest member.

May all your wishes and dreams for the upcoming year come true!

Posey in Color....

I couldn't resist and just had to break out my new Inktense pencils and watercolors to make this illo come alive. Have a good weekend. =)

Making a list

I have more ideas for this one. One would be floating presents round her head as if she's imagining the perfect one. Of course, I will be adding my art nouveau background once I have the idea firmed up.

All comments appreciated. Just a rough pencil sketch at this point, so there are lots of things to comment on for improvement. LOL

Sorry it's late. I spent most of Saturday and Sunday asleep fighting off a cold or something.
