Catching up

Little Red Wagon

Egg Harbor Township Nature Reserve

Went for a walk with Michael Jackson keeping time for me.  I ended up at the reserve and had a watercolor moment.  I forgot to bring paper towels, an eraser, and something to sit on though.

Latest watercolors

Two very different subjects.  A church building on the Whitney Plantation and goats in a field.

Candlelight Song

I'm celebrating the new year by resolving to paint more, so I'm returning to my little painting blog after a very long hiatus.  Lately I've allowed my busy schedule to rule my life; this year I intend to make time to do what I enjoy and to work on my skills.

Watercolors have always been a mystery to me.  I love the luminous paintings of Janet Fish, the subject matter and detail I find in the works of Mary Whyte and Dean Mitchell, and the loose strokes and bright Cape May scenes of local artist Marie Natale.  

"Fear not," I tell myself as I embark on my watercolor journey armed with my brushes and a great desire to find the place where those loose, light strokes reside.
