    All three are lovely Celia. You are really developing a lovely distinctive style with your paintings and I love the pencil drawing!

    Okay Celia! You are one rocking artist! So very pleasantly surprised to see the so very beautiful drawing of "Mary!" Of course I love so much about this piece! Great joy "seeing" what you decided not to draw! So very important to leave something for the viewer to complete in art! Bravo!
    Now, these two watercolors are no surprise! Which is great! Like Wendy mentioned they have so much of your very colorful distinctive style that I am coming to love and maybe even expect!!! Wow! I love the way you use the medium. Fluid! Again the colors are dramatic! Outstanding my art friend!
    Keep them coming buddy!
    Lover Of Color Michael!

    Fantastic work, Celia. Love the colors in the watercolors--such blues and yellows. And that stripe of red in Sun Ripe makes my heart go zing!
    Your Madonna is lovely too.

Happy 2015!!

 Clementine watercolor on paper  20x14 cm.   I am very excited to start off the new year because of the opportunity to focus on what lies ahead. My  goals for the coming months include many positive wishes!  I have written out a physical list for the first time in my sketchbook  to be able to draw a balance at the end. My first painting of the year is a clementine. The contrasting colors and the long shapes of the leaves  are always fun to paint; the fruit's taste is definitively delicious and brightens the dreary winter. I wish all of you a joyful, creative year! Happy 2015!

Parsley

Parsley watercolor on Garza Papel paper 20x14 cm. 300 grs Parsley is my favorite herb, I always keep a pot close to my kitchen. It is an interesting subject to improve leaf painting skills. I did minimal prelimanary drawing to keep the painting spontaneous. I focused on layering the shapes and observing the fresh colors in front of me.  I found parsley leaves fun to paint and instrumental in gaining more awareness and control when painting leaves! working from life is always my favorite! finding the right mix of color I can't believe this is my 100th post. Thanks for stopping by!

Pansies

 Pansies with Lemon  watercolor on cold pressed Daler Rowney paper  10" x 10" / 25 x 25 cm.  Available I wished to paint the happy faces of the pansies I planted earlier in the fall. They are hardy plants, lasting through the winter on my balcony. Soon I will have to pull them out and replace them with petunias or begonias, but not for another month. I love the different shades of purple and had fun mixing my own. I hope everyone is having a nice week!
