new bowls print & working on my cards




My cards came back from the printer
and I spent a snowy afternoon getting them done.
Look at pretty lemon cypress I found in Wegman's!
Hope I can keep it alive as a houseplant.  The scent is
so lemony and light when the needles are rubbed.

new tulips print


11" x 14"
on Etsy

The original sold, so I have made a print for the shop.

Monday, December 2, 2013



Just finished a commission for a very nice client.  
This is on a full sheet of watercolor paper 22" x 30".
I haven't painted that large for quite awhile, a nice change.  
I just loved painting this, planning all the patterns!  I only used cobalt and ultramarine 
so it was a fun challenge.  The client saw my small print of a single stack of 
bowls and was inspired for her dining room.  The bowl on the bottom right is
a reference to her late husband who loved tulips.

Today is so cloudy that I can't get a good photo. 
 I'll have to try again tomorrow 
 Think this would make a nice print in 11" x 14".

Now I'm finishing a lovely little French chair for
one of my favorite collectors.  She's planning a wall
of my little chairs.  I hope she sends me a picture!

Then, back to large paper again for a bouquet of white tulips.
Such joy!
