Far Fur! Challenge #44 - a Moose

More homework from Kate Johnson's watercolor texture class - fur. Far fur and close fur. I really like moose. Even though this one doesn't have a rack, it's still a moose. This was done with a 'travel' water color set on fake moleskin paper. Painted while overlooking the ocean from a camp (aka cabin) on Chebeague Island, Maine.

#119 Rocks!


This one is NOT based on a photo at all but straight from my head. I think I'm finally getting the hang of the watercolor painting thing. Yay!
When we travel outside of Maine, I miss seeing rocks. (unless we're in New Hampshire)

EDM #77 Something cold





The water here is VERY cold. This is Smalls Falls near Farmington, Maine. The painting was originally done for Kate Johnson's watercolor texture class. I'm including the reference photo and the reworked version of the painting.

EDM #18 - the view from a window



Another assignment from week 2 of Kate Johnson's watercolor texture class. This was a bark closeup. These trees are what I see out our back sliding glass door.

#15 A tree



I'm taking Kate Johnson's on-line watercolor textures class and last week we did foliage. Here is a tree from the north end of Cape Breton Island Nova Scotia - painted and its photo.
