Doodle City, Doo Wah Ditty. Once again, tiny 4 x 6 in. max. Sky, stars, land. Gouache added later to intensify the color and adjust the hues.

Below is a doodle with something like first Snow int he Mountains written in pencil on the bottom. approx. 4 x 6 in. 2015. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a cold cold winter in the DC area the year I moved to Maryland after 9 years away, (2015 January, record 4 degrees F the day we moved my stuff into my apt. )</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
not at all sure I wanted to be there, but family is a the magnet, 2 daughters still live in the area and one grand. As God would have it my son is assigned to the Pentagon, putting 3 of my 4 in the DC area at once. I am amazed. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8CK5YMdPjS5KN0M1iWqqY3X9PnRhZvPNzHH6tPTJoxnOdaR9D5ofXgmXnDm8QM9SW6W0OzX2PZHP2-Mkz7BoH1OTggoW5ZEg8W4upPfrXTdErYLykkEf9yb-RjvJeiT-swSn7N7BEhIED/s1600/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.19+AM+%25234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8CK5YMdPjS5KN0M1iWqqY3X9PnRhZvPNzHH6tPTJoxnOdaR9D5ofXgmXnDm8QM9SW6W0OzX2PZHP2-Mkz7BoH1OTggoW5ZEg8W4upPfrXTdErYLykkEf9yb-RjvJeiT-swSn7N7BEhIED/s320/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.19+AM+%25234.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

Another doodle thinking of snow coming in the winter. 4 x 6 in.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
oops, this is not a doodle after all. And it is not snow either. This is a sketch done in Maine, I believe at Birch Point Beach State Park. It just looked like snow and was right next to the above snow sketch. I'm sure it was unfinished, because the sand up there is NOT white. I was working on the colors in the sky and water and rocks.....2014 summer.</div>

Sketch below done during the hour in which my teacher was doing his demo. I sit with my tiny travel paints in my lap and my post card size Watercolor paper sketch book.

And this is one below of my fellow painters during a different demo by our illustrious teacher, David Dewey. --approx. 4 x 6 in. I was fascinated by the colors in the sketch. The person across the way, facing us, was actually an attractive lady, but my sketch made her look like a basketball player. Ha ha, no offense. Just was concentrating on the colors -experimenting with various ways to make gray. 2014 <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ7fyKDxr97r4O3c4Mp4t_Cz4Azh5zprGPAfB923emjgxfGw2g_vw4ABQOc2-NIKaPDwUqUi5nU_XetWikj65waAZxaGX0YaiqZ2aNrLv4iHVTseUUeaN0SNYERmDcoSIuniyvpLWZTv9D/s1600/IMG_0660.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ7fyKDxr97r4O3c4Mp4t_Cz4Azh5zprGPAfB923emjgxfGw2g_vw4ABQOc2-NIKaPDwUqUi5nU_XetWikj65waAZxaGX0YaiqZ2aNrLv4iHVTseUUeaN0SNYERmDcoSIuniyvpLWZTv9D/s320/IMG_0660.jpg" width="203" /></a></div>

Now then, this one below was painted at the Land, Sea and Air Museum on Mechanic's Street, Rockland, Maine--approx. 4 x 6 in. - 2014. I did add to it later like I do with many of the others, with gouache, messing with the colors, trying to adjust to what the painting seemed to want. Often it is just an experiment. What if I layer over this particular shade of yellow, what will it do to the work? <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGfFXyVSeOBeBtzJ9siPdZYuC05qEaZMb1JOgGZNov90KaWdDviG1vhjdH_6-6a2NxxLiFRWCXqZFpQnrAKLf3pX2tLDLPOs0kmv82e76mLStjyFL5wYw2onr8GwE8v4ED9m0yOGmSv0pK/s1600/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.20+AM+%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="208" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGfFXyVSeOBeBtzJ9siPdZYuC05qEaZMb1JOgGZNov90KaWdDviG1vhjdH_6-6a2NxxLiFRWCXqZFpQnrAKLf3pX2tLDLPOs0kmv82e76mLStjyFL5wYw2onr8GwE8v4ED9m0yOGmSv0pK/s320/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.20+AM+%25232.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

My dear friend, Joan, and I went to Monheghan Island and painted the day after the Master Watercolor Workshop in 2012? or 2013? There is this great red house there, probably painted by artists already a zillion times. Approx. 4 x 6 in. I did, as with many of the others, find this later at home and add layers and layers of gouache to adjust the colors like one can do in oils and acrylics but supposedly cannot do in Watercolor. I wonder what it's like to rent this house and stay there a night, or a week of nights, on Mohegan Island. Thank you, Joan.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPjT-3XJ9sg9M6_LwaxgZw-0OQS-ccqVqhEtLEMNNpT8Crj_Q0NzhNyBecCVdfQJ-7pL_QHxUNdrZLJAXBf6B_R6H-LwnnxGKoZ3wFXkR6ww9QNWHp4uHR-MWwMLW5e1Tif4kG6gBne7da/s1600/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.22+AM+%25234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="208" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPjT-3XJ9sg9M6_LwaxgZw-0OQS-ccqVqhEtLEMNNpT8Crj_Q0NzhNyBecCVdfQJ-7pL_QHxUNdrZLJAXBf6B_R6H-LwnnxGKoZ3wFXkR6ww9QNWHp4uHR-MWwMLW5e1Tif4kG6gBne7da/s320/Photo+on+5-24-15+at+12.22+AM+%25234.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

Another Sprucehead Scape below, Sprucehead Marina, Maine. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is one of my faves! long and thin. But I love the colors and the feel of it. It is the same scene of the tiny house across the water/ mud flats that may of us paint ..... ( See 7 paintings above) We can't help it; it is just an intriguing scene with that little house peeking out from behind the trees across the bit of water. So what I like about this is the color. It seems right and didn't need going over with gouache. 2014 </div>

At the Stress Test Doctor's Office. Approx. 4 x 6 in. I drew in black-brown fountain pen and when I got home that night I "colored" it in with gouache. The colors look all brown and dull but I will probably add more depth of color on certain parts to make it more interesting and balanced. This is a very nice doctor and his staff is quality and caring. Although it was tedious to wait in his freezing cold waiting room for 4 hours, their kindness made up for it. Inside this tiny closet like space was the receptionist. There is still such thing as "The Good Doctor".Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16462033939590908156noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903420993675958212.post-85226530014707937422015-05-24T22:11:00.000-04:002015-05-24T22:11:00.622-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The flippers, Waiting to be Flipped. Approx. 4 x 5 in. <br />
And the pool bag, clear acrylic making it easy to see the various things inside: Shampoo, ear drops, goggles, cap, shower wash, comb and so on. <br />
I mean, it was just sitting there in front of me, so that's what I painted.

I was exhausted physically and mentally from emptying out my Dad's house of his and mom's things, my things, and my sister's things. We had the garage sorted with piles of trash, stuff to haul to the thrift store and stuff to take. I was out of large boxes and just didn't like this enough to pack it and carry it to my next home. I was spent. But my dear daughter-in-law wanted it. And now it is in their home. Happy ending. I always loved the sky but my waves still look like concrete sometimes. </td></tr>

View from Oak Village Parking Lot in a Storm<br />
approx. 4 x 6 in.<br />
I love this little sketch. I had come to the pool where I swam daily with my paints, thinking I would sit by the pool and sketch before swimming laps. When I opened my car door, there was a huge crack of thunder and I jumped right back into the car. I waited for a few minutes to see if the storm would roll over but it carried on, so I painted the sun coming through the downpour and the wet pavement. It did not turn out realistic, but I like what it is. It is a good memory as well.<br />

View from The Lakehouse on Gospel Island Road in Inverness, FL<br />
about 4 x 6 in.<br />
I was on the stone bench down near the lake's edge. My friend Cathy, who runs the lakehouse was inside. It was hot that day and my new puppy was with me, I think. That is Cathy's boat that she loves to take out and she has graciously let me go out with her a few times.

After a long trip, I walked the bay with my dog. I sat leaning against a rock at the fence, happy I to be painting again. You get sand in your paints and on your painting, but nevermind. Just wait till it's dry and brush it off. When I took the painting to Skipjack for my show in November 2010, the owners recognized the spot and said their friend lives right there. Always wondered who lives in those houses right on the water. $225Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16462033939590908156noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903420993675958212.post-9977176205451353272010-12-03T20:48:00.002-05:002010-12-03T20:51:52.226-05:00Dunes from Memory on Treated Paper<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjedYhsd6jrihcQcYs2xJCjkVOd5PttlpQSQ-Q6NPUSISvH5g1ZFRtRcqle1LL5IMQHFgMMXk4yHm2_TtYB5nJDJDuI29leNfY7pMgkDtLSj04p2yeKKjx8g9zqeBSH9IP6V4xMd4ku8Gza/s1600/DSC00078.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 297px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjedYhsd6jrihcQcYs2xJCjkVOd5PttlpQSQ-Q6NPUSISvH5g1ZFRtRcqle1LL5IMQHFgMMXk4yHm2_TtYB5nJDJDuI29leNfY7pMgkDtLSj04p2yeKKjx8g9zqeBSH9IP6V4xMd4ku8Gza/s400/DSC00078.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546638312012137458" /></a><br /><br />Gouache from Memory, and in the Doodle category. 9 x 12 in.
