Two Yellow Iris

This painting was complicated to paint in watercolors. With each watercolor floral that I have completed since this one the procedure has gotten a little easier. This painting has sold but I may have others that you may be interested in. I do have note cards available. Original 11 x 22 watercolor.

California Coast

We walked along the path overlooking this beautiful view in California. I spent most of my childhood close by roaming the art galleries in Carmel By the Sea. This scene was just as it had been 40 years earlier when I walked this same path. This painting is not for sale.

Oil on 11 x 14 canvas.

Red Poppy

This bright red poppy was fun to do. It has sold and I know there will be more to come. Oil on 9 x 12 canvas. Every few months I get in to the explosive "red" mode where every tube I pick up

seems to be a shade of red!

Henry's Orchid

I painted this painting because of my dear friend Henry. He grows the most beautiful orchids and occasionally brings them to my painting class for all to share. I couldn't resist painting this one. This painting has sold but I may have others very soon. Watercolor on paper.

Supreme Sultan Iris

Painting this piece was an exercise in patience. This painting has sold, but I love to paint the iris so I know there will be more to come.

Single Yellow Iris

This is a large yellow iris painted with transparent watercolor.

It has sold but I am sure I will paint others.

Matilija Poppy

I was able to get a first hand look at the beautiful Matilija poppy on my last trip to California. There is no improving Mother Nature but this is my view. This painting just sold to a very dear friend but I am sure that I will paint more. Watercolor on paper 14 x 23.

Purple Iris

This was a huge undertaking for me with large areas of paper to fill with watercolor. I haven't painted very long in watercolors and such a large area felt so foreign to my usual oil painting work. Even though it was a challenge......I am pleased with the overall effect.
