The Inspired Artist

I’ve been watching several watercolor artists lately and was inspired to go get some watercolor paints and a tiny little sketch diary. This is the result of my inspirations.


Tree House


My two large fancy gold fish


The weatherman said we’d only have a short shower but it’s rained here for two days.
This particular piece has some digital alterations to drive the point home that you just can’t trust the weatherman. In this painting the forecast was clear, sunny skies high of 80 degrees.

    You’ve inspired me. I’ve not enjoyed watercolors too much very often, because I have trouble with them! But I just received watercolor pencils and I’m going to see if I can make those work better :-)

    I saw your Rose Petals and thought, I gotta try watercolors.

    There are some spectacular pieces in these galleries which were also part of my inspiration.
