New Florida Water Media Work


The transition has been made. I have spent the winter months in FL not New England and am one happy camper! So happy that I've actually gotten some time to make art in the luscious FL outdoors. Here are some of my latest works, what do you think? All are fairly small, the largest being 12x18". All are water media or a mixture of water media and pastel. I've experimented with different grounds, gesso and acrylic medium. I studied for a week with Barbara Baldwin of Deland, FL. She uses a variety of water media mixed with pastel and is mostly a pastel artist. Her workshop was on loosening up and I'm always looking for ways to do that.
