Avant le Gâteau


This is an 11 x 14 watercolor painted from a photo I took in my kitchen. I think this really became a lemon meringue pie but a friend named it for me and it stuck.

This painting was accepted in the juried show, "Rooster Call", to celebrate the annual Alabama Chicken and Egg Festival.

Update:: I won the blue ribbon for this entry :)

Parisian Pizzaria


This is an 11 x 14 watercolor painted from a photo I took on my recent trip to Paris. Traipsing around the stairs in Montmartre, this was one of many popular night spots.

Red Door





11 x 14 Watercolor on CP300

I painted this from a photo I took downtown on the backside of restaurant in downtown Mobile, Alabama. I don't know what the front side is but the little silver thing on the door is a tortilla press or something refashioned into a knocker.

The bike is a purple Gitane, like I had as a youth. Mine was 10 speed. This is fixed gear. I didn't know they made fixed gears. Maybe it was refashioned too.

I won a merit award for this one in the Mobile Art Associations Fall Juried show, 2011.

This painting was recently accepted in the juried show, "Bike Art at the Dairy."

Wish me luck :)

Little Ladies of Laurel Falls



11 x 14 Watercolor on CP300

This was painted from photographs of a recent trip to Tennessee. It depicts my nieces first ever hike in the Smokies. They were little troopers and made it all the way without any whining or assistance.
