Still Life with Spray Bottle

I was looking back at some older watercolors. This is one of my favorites. It is pretty large almost 30" wide. I have always likes my color choices and the design of this one. I am pretty happy with how the spray bottle turned out. This was one of those paintings that I was so happy with I framed it and it pushed me to keep going another six months. It is paintings like these that speak to you that keep you coming back as an artist.
I hope as I explore different mediums and learn more of the basics and train my eye more that I will go through a process I think at first you may see some fairly traditional paintings from me as I learn more classical oil techniques. I will be focusing on making the best paintings I am capable in these styles and desire to push out the other side expressing paintings that are in me just waiting to be painted.
Keep coming back and see how I am doing. I value all of your opinions and would like to know what it is about art that speaks to you whether you are an artist or an art lover.

Keep Makin' Art
