This old wigwam is a relic of the past. Used in sawmills to dry timber, this old timer is one of very few left. As a native of the Northwest, I remember them being a very common sight. Seeing this particular scene on our way home from a trip a few winters ago, I had to make a painting for the sake of a good memory. Comments or critiques welcome. Commissions taken.
In honor of Oscars night, a favorite actor / Portrait of Steve McQueen / Water color and ink on paper / From an old photo in a local magazine.

10×14 watercolor enhanced colored pencil. Original unavailable. For most of the 20th century the continental black rhino was the most numerous of all rhino species. Around 1900 there were probably several hundred thousand living in Africa. During the later half of the 20th century their number severely reduced from an estimated 70,000 in the late 1960s to only 10,000 to 15,000 in 1981. In the early 1990s the number dipped below 2500, and in 2004 it was reported that only 2,410 black rhinos remained. According to the International Rhino Foundation, the total African population has since then slightly recovered to 3,610 by 2003. According to a July 2006 report by the World Conservation Union, a recent survey of the West African Black Rhino, which once ranged across the savannahs of western Africa but had dropped to just 10, concluded the subspecies to be extinct. The northern white is soon to join the western black rhino on the extinction list as its last noted numbers were as few as 4. The only rhino that has recovered somewhat from the brink of extinction is the southern white whose numbers now are estimated around 14,500, up from fewer than 50 in the first decade of the 20th Century. The Black Rhinoceros has been pushed to the brink of extinction by illegal poaching for their horn and by loss of habitat. The horn is used in traditional Chinese medicine, and is said by herbalists to be able to revive comatose patients, cure fevers and aid male sexual stamina and fertility. The purported effectiveness of the use of rhino horn in treating any illness has not been confirmed by medical science. In June of 2007, the first-ever documented case of the medicinal sale of black rhino horn in the United States (confirmed by genetic testing of the confiscated horn) occurred at a Traditional Chinese Medicine supply store in Portland, Oregon’s Chinatown. It is used in the Middle East to make ornately carved handles for ceremonial daggers called jambiyas. Demand for these exploded in the 1970s causing the Black Rhinoceros population to decline 96% between 1970 and 1992. To say that this was time consuming would be an understatement. The wrinkles were enough to almost drive me batty.. but I managed to finish this one.. on to the elephant!! Complete 2008

Pure Watercolour on Arches 140lb…. I try to paint all my flowers from life, No pre drawing, just wetting the paper, dropping in some pale washes of pigment and see where it takes me.. It allows so much more freedom…..
I am quite fond of these fish – you just can’t mess up painting a koi :) I had just finished my initial drawing and was about to start painting – as always, I had my coffee cup right next to my water cup that I use for dipping my paintbrush into – wouldn’t you know it, I dipped my paintbrush right into the coffee. I realized it immediately, and didn’t actually paint with the coffee :) but it did set my mind adrift as to the possibilities of different color relationships for these fish – why let reality be your guide? Enjoy!

This watercolour is framed in a matching golden and black frame with a wide matt board a long painting. Thanks to Scatti evolutivi for permission to use her photo. This is for Malawi see www.shirleycharlton.com The Malawi woman are beautiful mothers they have a kindness and have a gift at bringing up children. Babies are so happy on their backs as they go about their work either digging thier gardens or fetching water, or firewood. I enjoyed painting this from Scatti’s photo and used artistic licence to make the child look happy as in the photo he looked a little sad. They maybe poor but they take the trouble with the scarf and headdress. Of course a photo is more exact but I hope I have captured the caring Malawian Mother, and a Mothers Love as Jesus loves us. Painted on Arches watercolour paper.
Watercolor and pencil on board. / 11×14 / 2009 Model: Adhara Batul Life came from many seas. Seas of deep blue and secrets unknown that keep myriads of bacteria and beginnings. Seas of wombs and their sacred silence. Seas of past and forgetfulness, alive in the depths of our souls, dark and mysterious.

Painting on full sheet of watercolour paper, it won a prize in a big art show. This painting also sold. I had a student who tried to copy it. But the good thing about watercolours is ( even I could not paint it again) They are original and happy accidents happen.
