It was the middle of winter, a long time since I had played in the garden, and I longed for the beauty of flowers. So, the artist in me said, "There shall be flowers aplenty!" And so there are, indeed. "Fantasy Floral" will blossom in a frame for 11 x 14" matted works.
"Bleeding Heart" Watercolor
A vase of freshly cut Bleeding Heart flowers and leaves demanded to be rendered in watercolor. Using a wet-in-wet technique for the first layer created a lovely diffuse background. "Bleeding Heart" fits sweetly in a frame that accepts 11" x 14" matted works.
Coral Bells $44.95
Sprigs of pressed coral bells from my garden were arranged in the fiber slurry while it was still in the screen mold. I continued pressing the water out of the slurry to make the paper. The delicate flowers made a lovely piece. "Coral Bells" is available only as an 11" x 14" Fine Art Print.
"Azaleas" $44.95
A vase of azaleas and other shrub flowers overflowing with their exuberance demanded to be captured on paper in watercolor. I did as commanded and was rewarded with this piece. Original work is matted and fits in a frame sized for 11" x 14" works. Available as a Fine Art Print.
"Fence Roses" Watercolor, $59.95
These pretty roses entwined in a white picket fence made an enchanting scene. Original work is matted and will fit in a frame that accepts 8" x 10" works.
