Inspired by one of my favorite quotes "If you are not living on the Edge, you are taking up too much Space", and also the challenge of Larry Seiler, from whom I am following a teaching webcast on painting and stretching my boundarys, I am going to start a blog of 120 (or more) paintings, all postcard size, some from life, others from photos refs. they will be primarily watercolor, as I strive to become a better watercolorist, but I may also deviate into other areas as my fancy takes me. I love to experiment so you never know what might surface.


I love ink drawings colored with watercolor or colored ink. but I am also trying to lay color down without first drawing , trying to loosen up the compulsion to detail that I have

A while back one of my Facebook friends (also a Wetcanvas friend) posted a challenge, called Pay it Forward. The first 5 people who commented would receive a surprise from her, on condition that each repost with the same challenge. (I got a wonderful Zentangle bookmark and a postcard from her)
So I posted and got my first 5 comments. I sent out the little parcels today, each contained a Gelli-printed puzzle, a fridge magnet with a reproduction of one of my paintings and an original watercolor card.
here are my mini paintings: which I will number 59, 60, 61, 62, 63 for this project

 #59- for Beth
 #60 for Helen
 #61 for Sharron
 #62 for Bev
#63 for Mary

    I love the story but not as much as the paintings. The a truly a joy. You have the ability to see space. Not everyone has it so treasure it.
