Morning Glories

"Morning Glories"

6x12 watercolor

My second painting in Leslie Saeta's 30 in 30 challenge is this tower of morning glories which I grow on trellises inside ceramic pots on my deck. The 'heavenly blue' shade of these flowers is almost impossible to paint, but I tried. I so love sitting on my deck painting these gorgeous flowers! This has been a perfect summer and I hope this is a trend in the weather.

Peaches and Peonies

Peonies and Peaches 

9x12 watercolor

Well maybe they aren't peonies, but the point 

was to have a good time with my watercolors and ink pens. 

I did the drawing without a reference 

and the fun part was the paint.

I'm here in Naples, Florida with family and friends 

and it's been a wonderful change of pace. 

Sun and fun :)
