"Deseret Heat"

I love color & the Desert almost glows with brightness. So this was
painted like I think of the Desert in the summer heat.

"Southern Tradition"

I do love magnolia blossoms. This one has already reached it's peak bloom & now
is fading into softer warm colors. This was done on wet paper.
Splattering & many washes helped to form the dying petals & dropping stamen.

     I keep a journal & like to take it everywhere I go. Always getting ideas or sketching something to go into my paintings. Husband Tex & I travel a lot so I am always finding new & different things or just seeing something in a different way. I use my sketch books, photos or small paintings to paint larger paintings in my studio.

"Watchers"

This was fun to do. Some spattering & lots of washes were done on wet paper. Drying each layer
of color before completely wetting paper well before adding another layer. Thin Acrylic
washes were used on the wet paper. The Geisha is dancing & fireworks are lighting the sky,
a pagoda in the background and watchers all aroun the Geisha.
