Water Works

Posted on November 19, 2012 by cindihandy

My love of kayaking has inspired me to create many watercolor paintings to express the tranquility and beauty I see on the water. Working from photographs, I paint layer upon layer of transparent watercolor paint to create the vivid colors in the paintings. As you can see, I fell in love with lily pads and consider these to be some of my best work.

I then began painting full-sized watercolor paintings of all types of flowers. All of my watercolors are done on Strathmore 140 lb. coldpress with Winsor & Newton watercolor paints, unless otherwise noted. If you click on an image, you will be able to view it in a larger format.
