Brown and White Cow (5"x 7")

These are some random, 'just for fun', subjects. I was looking for something less detailed and complicated to paint.

This gives some perspective on the "Tea with Lemon" painting size and how it hangs on a wall. The watercolor painting gets sealed with a varnish so it doesn't need to be behind glass.

"Tea with Lemon" 8"x 8"
Watercolor on Aquabord panel (ready to hang on the wall without frame or glass.)
This painting will be at the Lititz Historical Foundation on June 3rd, 5 - 9 pm in the Chinese auction.

This board is what is supplied to all the watercolor artists to paint their subject on. The choice of subject is Food, or Music.

Stage 1 of my donation: I decided on a still life with tea and lemon. I started with the tea cup and saucer.

I think the top, right area needed something to break up all that black space, so I added another yellow napkin.

The dark around the white dishes makes them stand out. Just like the dark night against the stars in the sky. The stars still shine during the day, it's just that we can't see them without the darkness. 

I'm starting to lift off the glass highlights on the juicer. I still have some work to do. I need to finish it before the end of May.
