Watercolor Doodles

I spent some time Saturday night with "Watercolor Made Easy' by Janet Walsh.  I got it from FMBAA Library.  I am always trying to increase my skills in watercolor so I played around with simple brush strokes with flowers, leaves, and fruits.  These are some of the Fruits of my labors!

JUST BEGINNING TO BLOG

Today was an office day with loads of emails to answer and phone calls to make.  I did not get to paint.         I have checked out two books from our Fort Myers Beach Art Association and I plan to curl up and read tonight for a couple of hours.  At Noon today I led a group of our Woodcrest Village ladies, 9 of us plus my Mother, to Gulf Coast Center.  We ate lunch at Connor's and had a wonderful time.  I gave out one of my note-cards as door prizes to each lady.  I enjoy making the cards.  They are always of my paintings.  I also sell them at bazaars or privately. I hope to learn about blogging and put my paintings on this spot for you to enjoy. This one was taken on Fort Myers Beach Feb. 2013 at "Art on the Boulevard"  I like to Plein Air Paint and I was painting while a group of us from FMBAA were selling our paintings.  This year we will do this event again in November.
