Flowers in Watercolor

HI, I taught at ESO in Belle Haven,Va.on the Eastern Shore yesterday. We painted watercolors of the beach. I was tired when I got home and so was Sadie.. you can see the art bag behind her. She tried to bury a bone in it last night. I've added some verbina to the little painting. It's better. Very proper.. I do like looser but this is what came out of me yesterday. Are you like that?  Have a great weekend.. love,Diana

  1. Diana - verbina adds just the right touch - so lovely. Lol at Sadie using your art bag for her hiding place. Wow is she ever getting big fast. Have a beautiful week-end.

  5. I never know what's going to come out! It's often not what I pictured ... but that's okay, right?
    I love verbena--have some in my yard.
    The other flowers (dahlias?) are very nicely painted--there's a real feeling for how they are structured.
    And, again, love the background!

  7. Your painting is beautiful! We've just brought Sherlock an Antler. He LOVES it! And it doesn't smell like a bone, or get sticky and also it's not brittle. Very good for them too :0)

  8. Sadie is growing by leaps and bounds.
    and yes, sometimes my paintings turn out loose and other times not.. I don't know what to make of it except that I have 'no style'
    I'm back from my trip as of 2 days ago, and now the task is , get over jet lag, and back to home stuff.. and lets not forget painting. !
