The month of September has just flown by. My shoulder is healing beautifully and the weather here in Arizona is starting to cool down. Plus this had been a record month for my art sales. I've sold 17 paintings since early in August. Wow!
I continue to have fun with what I'm calling my colorful, whimsical paintings. I have always wanted to push the boundaries of color but have usually been more of a timid tinter. Well, I feel excited about how freeing using something other than "local" color has been. Here is an example of some of my recent work. These are watercolor painted on cradled panels.

Keeping Busy
I'd love to dedicate a different room in my house to each medium I'm working in. One would be my pastel studio. One room would be dedicated to watercolor paints. Another would be for my oils and all the supplies that go with it etc etc. It sure would make life a bit easier than trying to do everything in one room. I'm lucky to have a large L-shaped desk but rarely get to see the top of it. I know the easy solution would be to only use one medium, two at the most but then which do I give up?
I've been commissioned to paint this sweet dog in the colorful, whimsical style that I've been doing but who can resist the chance to "practice" with my pan pastels first.
These are just a few of the paintings I've recently done. I am especially having fun with the colorful dogs which I've painted with watercolor onto cradled, gessoed wood panels. Often the varnishing process takes me as long to do as the painting has.
