Two new orchid paintings



After attending the Pacific Orchid Exposition in San Francisco in March with a painting group, where I took 430 photos of orchids (!!!), I picked a couple of my favorite images and painted them. I incorporated some air brush, which was new for me and was lots of fun.

Painting accepted into National Watercolor Society all-member show


This painting, Taking a Break in Zakopane, was accepted into the National Watercolor Society annual all-member show. The balloon seller and the young man in an animal costume are taking a break from their jobs as entertainers on the main street of Zakopane, Poland, which is swarming with tourists and families out for the day.
