passionateartist for JKPP

Started snowing again today.  Sky is grey.  I made another watercolor portrait for JKPP.  He reminds me somewhat of my dad's facial features.  I wonder if he is a Scot?

14 inch snow!

I shoveled a path through the patio to the garage and then rested and painted. Then I shoveled one path down the driveway to the street and my front sidewalk and the front porch. Now I am done. Leaving the rest of the drive for tomorrow.  Did this watercolor while I was resting.  lphopkins for JKPP in transparent watercolor.

Another watercolor portrait for JKPP.  I am becoming obsessed.  My only excuse is that it is getting me ready for the February workshop.

JKPP Just Inspiring Me Alot

Watercolor made from a photo in Julia Kay's post to the party.  She looked like she was working on a picture on the computer and was very focused.

Julia Kay Portrait Party

I did these 2 for Julia Kay Portrait Party.  I am not saying these are my best work, but it is what I did today.  There are many, many wonderful portrait artists in this group.  The group intimidates me and makes me stretch.

Waterfall

This is an oil painting that I completed at Artists of Grace around September or October.  It started from a photograph that I took and took off into imaginative inspiration.  It was on display this fall in their gallery.
