These are the CUTEST Picasso dogs! Created by the kindergarten class today. They learned watercolor resist and it was hilarious watching their reaction to the process. One boy just kept shouting WOW every time the watercolor slipped off the oil pastels leaving splashes of color all around the pastels. Yeah…it is kinda fun to watch. 😂

I had so much fun showing my kindergarten class how I make my abstract watercolors. We used ph Martins liquid watercolors and dropped these bright vivid colors onto wet paper. With a little help from the class the colors were blended. Then they splattered iridescent watercolors (it was like cleaning up after a parrot who had just been fed). They took water soluble crayons and practiced mark making and doodling. This week they will cut them into circles and glue them on black paper to make their own colorful planets. The papers turned out so beautiful it will be hard to cut them up!

My commute to work this morning was a winter wonderland of giant snowflakes! I couldn’t resist the photos while driving! Don’t worry I was on a back road and there was no traffic.

Charcoal drawing for a friend to give as a Christmas present. Posting now as I know for sure the gift has been received. I still do pet portraits when asked. This one was fun. I applied charcoal directly to a blending stump to put in the lowlights on the dog’s fur.

Spent the day with gazing at the sparkling sea high above the city of San Francisco. We painted and ate delicious gluten free cakes and pizza from in Petaluma. Such an amazing day!! And the weather was beautiful!

RIP to Eleanor the stray cat that lived in our backyard. She was so sweet and polite. Preferred to remove herself rather than fight with the neighborhood cats. She relished early morning sunlight and made nests in the leaves. It took months of coaxing before she let me pat her. But we grew to have an understanding that was special. I will miss looking out the window and seeing her. She was elderly and I gave her a sweet retirement spot. May she find all the sunshine she loves so much and deserves over that rainbow bridge. 😢❤️

The Youth art show in Auburn CA. It was a requirement for my HS students to put a piece in this show, you can see their framed pieces behind and above me, but I was excited to have 10 more pieces from elementary grades to add to the collection. This is such an amazing opportunity for my students to participate in and learn about the process of putting their artwork out in a gallery. As an artist it takes great courage to put our work out there to be seen and I applaud these students for their creativity and courage.

I am so behind in posting this! Now that I am teaching art again K-12 4 days a week, it has been a bit all consuming. However, I still sit down once a month and enter my own pieces in calls to artists. This year I entered my piece “Grace”in the Placerville Arts Association show and was selected. This was such a beautiful show! What an honor to be there with all those incredibly talented artists! You can still see the show online at https://www.paa.gallery/ The in person exhibit has closed.
