A PAIR OF PEARS by Colorado Artist Martha Kisling

A PAIR OF PEARS
Watercolor 8x10

I had so much fun with this painting - choosing an unusual color scheme, adding oil pastel, creating texture with salt, using a stamp for the suggestion of writing and finally putting it all together to create a unique compostion. The joys of being an artist!

SINGLE ROSE by Colorado Artist Martha Kisling

SINGLE ROSE
Watercolor 8x10
I love to paint a large, single flower where I can focus in on the fine details of the petals and also create a dramatic composition. I first lightly sketched in the rose and then wet the paper to paint in the background, adding some spatters of pink and green. I painted the petals after the paper was dry and enhanced areas of the back ground around the rose.
Single Rose is one of several smaller paintings that can be found on my Auction page at Daily Paintworks here

"Villa Window" by Colorado Artist Martha Kisling

VILLA WINDOW
Original Watercolor - 11x15

This painting brings to mind simpler times - old stone building, blue shutters, lace curtains and a pot of flowers sitting on the window sill.
