Whiles washing some grapes I loved all the splashes and bubbles that were created. I quickly grabbed my camera to take many shots. To get the exact composition and coloring I wanted for the painting I combined several photos. This was a labor-intensive work of love. Took over 60 hours to complete.

Watercolor Class at Inter Valley Health Plan
Full house today at Inter Valley Health Plan's watercolor class in Palm Springs. Everyone did such a great job. I enlarged two of the paintings here because I thought it was so much fun to see their creative interpretation of the image. I love that no two paintings are ever alike, even though we all start with the same photo.

And, so it begins.... How I start an oil painting
And so it begins.....
I love prepping my canvas with orange. It leaves a lovely glow shining through oil glazes. I then draw the image with white charcoal. Next step... mixing lots of paint before I start.
