Abstract Nature

Watercolor painting of trees with yellow and green leaves beside a body of water.

Whimsey - Abstract Nature

When I need a break from the intensity of portrait detail, and my muscles of imagination need flexing, I like to experiment with the liberty that water takes with pigment on the page.  These paintings are generally worked in only 2-3 colours, allowed to mix on the page, and I allow the result to “find” the scene.
