Nola Streetcar Rider

A very stately lady I saw riding the streetcar in New Orleans this summer.
14x17 watercolor

The Cubans

More of my faces from summer. These were painted from photos I got off facebook (from a friend of a friend)  They are both 6x6 oil on masonite board.

Persons of Interest

Project for the summer was to paint faces. I try to find photos with interesting attitudes that aren't posed. Perhaps I should call these unsuspecting persons of interest. Top two are 6x6 lower one is 5x7 all are oil on masonite panel.

Woody

Watercolor 14x14
Painting I did for a friend. First attempt at a watercolor cat using techniques I picked up from a workshop I took this spring.

Lucky

10 1/2 x 18 1/2 Watercolor
I'm calling this Lucky because I think the name fits.  I wish I knew whose dog this is. I found the picture on Facebook a year or two ago and loved the expression.  I started this in Bev Jozwiak's class at Kanuga, it is my first dog painting in watercolor.  I think I will try more.SOLD

Bev Jozwiak's Workshop

Kanuga watermedia workshop Apr. 2-8, 2016. Great instructor! Two paintings I did in workshop. A really good learning experience.

Tip's Frame

This is an oil painting I did this past winter (10x20 Poppies). I'm not sure it is good enough for the frame my friend Tip Hargrove made from reclaimed wood which is beautiful.
