Title or Location: Costa Brava Boats
Our family was vacationing in Tossa de Mar, Spain. We had ben out for a walk but it was beginning to rain and as we hurried home, I saw these boats up on the sand. I was just really drawn to them so I ran over and took a photo before the rain really started coming down. Months later, I decided to paint the scene.

Title or Location: Record Retreat
I wanted to capture the lovely lake house I was able to stay at. I know that this house is a special place for my in-laws and I wanted to honor that. I took a kayak out into the Sebego lake to capture the image I used as a reference photo. This is a mini landscape only 2.5x3.5 inches

Title or Location: A Lighthouse for Marcos
I took a class with David Lobenberg, a professional and master watercolor painter and master art mentor. He led us through, step by step, painting this lighthouse (a painting he has done several times). So, the composition is not original. But my execution of the painting is all my own. I painted this over two four-hour Saturday classes. Before this class and this painting, the last time I took a watercolor painting workshop was about 30 years ago, with artist Anne Gregory. In the years since,

Title or Location: I hope you see me blooming
This was the first watercolor painting that I made after my husband of 11 years passed away from cancer. I wanted to prove to myself that I could still paint without him because it was always something we did together. It took a really long time. Too long. But he was incredible. A lot of people have told me that they can see his influence through my art and that makes me want to keep painting.
