A 4x6" colour sketch of Sgwyd Gwladys in preparation for a much larger piece. Sgwyd Gwladys is a beautiful waterfall - one of many on the Neath 'Waterfall Country' walking route starting in Pontneddfechan.

A friend commissioned me to redraw a small inktober doodle into a 11x17 version. Pen and ink with black watercolor. Does my larger version still have the same lighthearted feel as the original doodle?

Whimsical. Watercolor. No reference used, just imagination. Prompt: SAVE OUR CHILDREN. Human trafficking awareness.

A dew draped crabapple, nestled in the grass. Crayola crayon on some type of paper from the great ol dollar store.

Lucky meets the pack

A cat is not happy that Neal has brought a dog to the workshop. Both pets need time to adjust to each other. Hopefully, they will become friends. :)

Merry christmas and a healthy and happy new year to you all. Colored ink and some sparkles of gold ink on water color paper

Four legs good, two legs bad.

Standing upwind of Cobble-Wobbleton is the only way to appreciate it's charms.

The jarring moment when you are asked a thoughtless question. The decision to respond appropriately and proportionately that protects yourself versus answering in a manner that protects the status quo.

Happy mother's day! Ink and watercolor.

The late great King Quinoa. During the lockdown I'm doing a series of cat portraits for Gatti di Roma in Rome. I've auctioned this and all proceeds went to the charity.

Home grown shallots commemorated in a small watercolor painting. This is done on Arches hot press paper with Daniel Smith watercolors.

The finished piece is 24 x 32 inches on 300lb. hot-pressed watercolor paper ~painted with watercolor and ink. There were a lot of components I wanted to incorporate in this piece. Then, the painting kept "going". It moved of its own accord in places I did not anticipate, and I kept going with it....people that I know/have known intertwined in my mind as I painted the tree branches. Overall, the painting took on so many meanings to me as it matured

Upset Ghost. Block print drawing with coffee, watercolor, and ink.

I feel like my landscapes have very traditional colors so i tried to make these look bright and exaggerated but still hold the same base color. Let me know what you think.

As evident from it's name, I have made a lake and autmny trees surrounding it....

Another watercolor I made from observation. This is a quiet place near my father's home, where I use to go with my friends when I was a child. I am painting those in a 5x8 very convenient moleskin watercolor book. I previously eyeballed the dimensions of this book at 4x6 when I had no ruler to verify but I was slightly wrong. Now the info is exact. :)

Painted as my final project for my Painting Environments course. I was super nervous about tackling this one, but learned a ton taking this course. I'm happy to move on to the next one. :-) Ironwood Forest Project parameters: - Forest full of massive trees - Implied path - River rambling through tree roots - Waterfall
