Red & Violet Three

This is a 5x7 abstract landscape in bright colors! I have been doing Fall color themes lately, so I thought It would be fun to work with these colors again.  I love to work with bright colors! I can't help myself!

Gentle Yellow Field

10x14 watercolor with pastel on paper. This piece has a lot of line. I hope to give a sense of grass blowing in the breeze!. I think it is fun to create work with energy and movement.

Snowcapped Canyon

This is an 8x10 watercolor with pastel. I was looking at our Southern California mountains and I realized that they will be snowcapped soon! So I did this abstract landscape with that in mind!
