Calla Lilies on Blue- watercolor on Yupo board

I like calla lilies. I also like the colors of this painting- smokey grey blue, white, with touches of green, yellow, brown, and purple. It's watercolor on yupo board, 5x7 inches.

I am sending this to "Postcards from the Ledge" a fundraiser for public art in Asheville, NC.

Another Calico Cat on Yupo- Painting of the Day

I have painted this reference photo before. What I like about the reference photo is the long hair and whiskers of this cat as the sunlight shines from behind her head. It's very dramatic.

That is difficult for me to capture on yupo as the paint slides around on the surface. Some of the whiskers and fur here are wiped and scratched out of the paint film. Others are painted with a little acrylic on a long and tiny brush.
