Watercolor and Collage

Forest Moon

Spirit Angel Moon

 Collage work as intrigued me for some time now. The way that you can put elements of designs and subject matter to form pleasing sometimes abstract or surreal images together. Combining watercolor, is something that I have been toying with. For me, I have to have it revolved around a single theme idea and creatively put together elements in an intuitive way. Here are some results that I am pleased with. The Moons with the backgrounds are my watercolors. The rest are images and papers that I have collected over the years that I am now putting to use.

My Watercolor Workshop in Duravel, France

The watercolor workshop in the Southwest corner of France was a resounding success! This was my first time teaching internationally. I could not be more please. All students enjoyed the workshop. Here are a few photos of the art studio and the surrounding medieval villages that we had the pleasure in visiting and learning about the history.
