Purple Calas

Another flower doodle - this time purple calas that were an Easter gift.  I love the shapes of both the flowers and the leaves.

A Small Outdoor Sketch and a Flower Doodle

This is a small sketch in my moleskine sketchbook of a scene looking out from Union Square Park, where my sister Joan and I stopped to sketch before stopping in to see the American Watercolor Society Show.

This is a flower "doodle" of a pink hydrangea that I got last week for my birthday.  It's done on a 5x7 greeting card, which I hope is the start of a series.

Springmaid Sketches

The above sketches were all done during my stay  at Springmaid Beach in Myrtle Beach, SC.   The small watercolor sunrise sketch was done very quickly on a freezing cold morning.   The scanner left out some of the lighter blues in the sky and water. 

On the Road - Days 74 and 75 of 75

I was on the road travelling to Springmaid Beach for a watercolor workshop and did Day 74 in the lobby of the a hotel halfway there, and Day 75 - the final sketch, at Springmaid Beach on Sunday 3/3/13. 

"Orchidoodle" - Day 73 of 75

I had so much fun doing the tulip doodle yesterday that I thought I would try it again with an orchid. This is number 73, and tomorrow I will be on the road possibly sketching from the car, on the way to a watercolor workshop in Springmaid Beach. 

"TulipDoodle" - Day 72 of 75

While browsing through some art blogs this morning, I came across Pat Howard's  blog Painted Prism.  She was explaining how she did her doodles, and the examples she gave were florals.  I loved them, so I made today's sketch a "TulipDoodle".

Tulips - Day 71 of 75

I'm squeezing this one in tonight before I go to bed.  It's a quick sketch of some tulips that I will be working on for a watercolor.
