Leaves..Watercolor..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews



 I love to challenge myself with design.

 This was 'test' painting in readiness for a workshop I did.

I don't like to pre-draw images for the most part, and instead let my paints run and fold into each other making interesting designs into which I can 'fit' a subject ...

I used Golden Liquid Acrylics with a small squirt bottle to start this one. If one leaves a lot of white and interesting negative shapes, they have a better chance of finding a subject and bring it into focus.

I worked with WATERCOLORS to get the leaf shape, and of course, NEGATIVE PAINTING.


                                              This is a 7" x 12.5" image (unframed)
                                                                 This image is Sold.

"Blue Eggs" by Texas Contemporary Artist, Judy Wilder Dalton



Blue Eggs
12 x 24 Oil on Canvas

Judy Wilder Dalton

I think we mostly think of Robin's egg blue when we think of blue bird's eggs.  But there are lots of different birds that lay blue eggs, like the Eastern Bluebird.  I am not sure what kind these are, because I just really took artistic liberty and painted what I wanted.   I have always been fascinated with bird's nest and I love to paint them.

Feathered Friend, by Melissa A. Torres, 10x10 water mixable oils on canvas



This painting was created using a photo I took while vacationing in Puerto Rico.  We were at a restaurant in Salinas (Salt Flats) over looking the water. There was a wild life preserve nearby, so there were various birds to see.
