Garden Gaiety..Watercolor..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

A loose and spontaneous watercolor, this one was great fun to paint.

I did not pre-draw anything. I just found shapes onto which to build my flowers after a loose throw of paint.

I am always telling my students to leave the whites of the paper showing through, and to be aware of the shapes they make as well, no two white shapes should be the same size and importance.

If the design is a good one, the painting should be successfully turned in most directions and still look okay.

Try it, this way of painting is very freeing..

                                           This image is 15" x 22" unframed.

                                                           $350 plus S/H

Bountiful..Abstract Floral..Watercolor.. Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

Hot of the press! This is another 12" x 16" unframed watercolor on Arches paper.

Trying to stay as loose and 'playful' as I can with these florals.. Having a great deal of fun.

No pre-drawing at all involved, it's all allowing the paint to move and make the images. 

Try it, you will certainly have to let go of all the disciplines of traditional watercolor.

This image comes unframed.
12" x 16"
$150 including S/H within the contiguous USA.

Floral Fanfare..Watercolor abstract.. Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

Happy New Year everyone! I am trying to get back in the proverbial groove again, and have spent the day in my very neglected studio at last.

How much better than to ring in the New Year painting huh?

This image is all about play and I guess I still have fireworks on my mind or in my ears! :))

I am going to try to do a few more still life florals in this loose watercolor way for you. I hope you enjoy them.

This image is unframed and 12" x 16".

Spanish Garden Pathway..Watercolor Landscape..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

I decided to get back to my roots so to speak and do a few watercolors. This one is the first in a while.

I have missed this medium. As with many artists who paint in all media, sometimes some of them get left in the dust. I have been doing a lot of pastels lately too as you might all know.

 I think I am due for a change.

Stay tuned for more new images. For now, anyway..:))

Image size is 8" x 14" unframed.

This painting is $150 plus S/H.

Party Bouquet by Char Fitzpatrick | Watercolor Painting | Floral Still Life

18x24
Watercolor

©2014 Char Fitzpatrick

Another experimental painting in which I was trying to capture the vivaciousness of dahlias. I crazily threw in the color and then applied zig-zaggy outlines to express the gaiety and movement of the hues. I was particularly entranced by stems in the water through the transparency of the vase.

Dark Dahlias by Char Fitzpatrick | Watercolor Painting | Floral Still Life

24" x 18"
Watercolor

This is another in a series of interpretive floral paintings. The dahlias intense colors are offset by jagged lines and the spotty background suggests a wall behind the table. I like to work with transparent vases and how they distort stems.

"Fall's Bounty" watercolor by Texas Artist Linda Bein

"Fall's Bounty"
15"x22"
transparent watercolor
to inquire contact Linda at lindaabein@gmail.com

This watercolor brings back the memories of the fall in in western New York State.  We would ride the wagon and pick apples in the apple orchards and have cider and donuts after our work was done.  Then we would go home and my daughters would help make apple muffins, bread, and pies, and of course their favorite, homemade applesauce.   We would pick out our pumpkins in the pumpkin patches   There were always stands selling gourds and squash.  Some of those squash were 15" long and 4-5 inches in diameter. They make the best chocolate zucchini bread.  I will say that the squash in Texas is small, I thought everything was bigger in Texas????  whats up with that?  Probably not enough rain!!!!
