Dillsburg Watercolor Group 10/28/13

Love that paint can. It's fun to see how the reflection works with different objects nearby.

 Another 5 min. quickie - radishes. I work a bit to "wet" for this type of sketchbook. I need to find one with heavier paper.

Girl from Mozambique

I'm creating some publicity materials for a project my church does to help girls go to secondary school in Mozambique. I painted this from one of the photos I was given of girls who've been involved in the project. Loved her skin color.

Something "architectural"

50 cents if you can figure out what this is...Didn't think so.  A group that I met with at Carlisle Arts and Learning Center a few weeks ago had given the assignment to create something "architectural". After a few lousy attempts at sketching an abandoned house I'd photographed on a recent trip, I zeroed in on a teeny little part of it. (upper left corner) Took some liberties with the color.

5 min sketches

Just some 5 min sketches in Jeannies' group

Dillsburg WC Session 2

I found this paint bucket at the hardware store when I was on my way to class. Couldn't resist.

Dillsburg Watercolor Group Session 1

Our watercolor group has moved to the basement of the Historic Monaghan Church. We're hoping to be part of an Arts Center in Dillsburg that will use the Church as it's space.

I only had about 45 min. to paint this session because I was helping to set up and organize things. I did work on the background later, though.

Robert Hagenbuch

I finally finished the picture of Mark's brother.
