Hydrangea Final

Here's the final on the Hydrangea painting. I'm calling it "Naomi's Hydrangeas" since she was my mother-in-law, now deceased, and she could grow the most beautiful hydrangeas ever.

Hydrengeas WIP Step 4

Hydrangea - Step 4, WIP
I am loving this one, it's fun to paint, like
a good book it slowly unfolds for me. And like a good book, somehow I will miss working on it when it's done.

Update

I cannot believe I have not posted since March 15! Well, hmmmmm
There are now prints on my site at ebay. http://www.glowing-watercolors-by-cia.com
and I'm selling some of my old art books also. I have read them a million times (well, you know)
so I thought maybe somebody else would love them.

Here's the last two paintings I have there right now. There is a bid on the "Come Hither" one and not much time left.

The other one, and I do not know why there are no bids on this thing, because I think it's one of my best ones, is Confederate Roses.

On another note, I think that I am feeling a lot better finally after my back surgery back in September. More later!

Trying to come back!

Hello everyone, sorry I've not been posting. Seems like life is quite busy for me lately, my granddaughter, her husband and 2 year old have come to stay with me awhile. It was good
for them to be here while I was recovering from my surgery!

I have been painting! Here's some steps of the one I'm working on right now. I have another step done but haven't taken a picture yet.
Let me hear from you, and you can now subscribe to this blog! And I hope that you will! Later!

Back from a 3 month absence!

Hello! I took some time off. I cannot say why I did it, it seems that my muse was gone.
But I've done 3 paintings recently, and here they are. First this is a white rose, mostly. A friend of mine allowed me to use her photo reference, and this is how it came out. It's a half sheet.

Next, I did a painting of hollyhocks, by far, my favorite flower, since I have grown them for many years, not including the last 2 years when I've mostly been growing weeds, and helping with a great-grandson during the day.

I'm working on another hollyhocks one, it is proving to be very HARD.
I'll post it when it's done. Cia

"Sundance"

Good evening readers, I'm here right now to post my latest work. I just finished this a while ago. I really like it too! It's called "Sundance" and it's watercolor on Arches 140 lb. cold press paper, a full sheet this time! It's been a very long time since I tried to do that! Let me know what you think! Cia
