Mid Spring – Works in Progress
A gesso-watercolor abstract painting in progress. Blue flowers… my intent was to create pansies, however that may change as I get into the details. This is with the first layer of color on the leaves. More color will go on the leaves, and then I’ll start on the details. That part is always scary… what if I muck it up? 🙂
It felt good to get back to these paintings, I’ve been ignoring them for a bit but the muse finally wanted to work on them again. Yay! If I keep the momentum, I’ll have several done in the next few days. We’ll see. It’s hard to be in the studio when the sun is shining!
I did start this painting today, outdoors on the deck. Inspired by the Lewisia we have in pots near the table where we were sitting and finishing our (caffeine free) iced tea.
It doesn’t look like much, and I’ve already decided I should have made it taller (rather than square) as the flower stems are much higher in real life. However, this will be an abstract, so I will take poetic license.
And from the garden this lovely day:

WIP’s drying on the hotel floor |
I had to share the sunset from our hotel room window this evening (Monday). We’ve been to the dry desert area of Mesa and Yuma Arizona, and are finishing our trip driving up Highway 101 on the California and Oregon coast.
Fellow WOYWW folks… note that we’ll be arriving home after a long drive about the time this posts, and I’ll be a very tired girl. I will catch up with you all as soon as I’ve had a really good sleep in my own bed.
