Falling Hearts

"Falling Hearts" - Original Watercolor Painting - Size 5 by 7

I've been working on this painting the past couple days. It's not a mini, but it was supposed to be. I just thought it would be too difficult to do that small. I'm thinking about doing some larger paintings too. Perhaps some 8 by 10's 11 by 14's and maybe bigger! Eek! :) I'm not sure why I always paint so small. I guess it's because it's just easier with realism. But I want to branch out and try something new.

"Falling Hearts" is available on Etsy.

"Bleeding Hearts" 5 by 7, Watercolor Painting

Here is a piece that I have been working on the past few days. I'm beginning to get a better feel for these watercolors. This photograph drew me in because of the strong highlights on the flowers. I actually took this photograph along with the tulip photos that I've been painting lately, on the same day at a local park.

This painting was completed on 140lb cold press with Winsor & Newton watercolors and it's available in my Etsy shop.

Just a little side note, Laura Trevey featured me on her very popular Bright, Bold and Beautiful blog yesterday. Click here to view the post. Thank you Laura for your kind words! :)

Don't forget about the "Painting a Day" event that Laura Trevey is hosting on her blog this month. Just a few days left!
