I can't believe that nearly a whole year has gone by, my goodness time took a jet plane this past year.  I have done so many paintings, but I can't post all of them, so I'll add a few that I really like. I am now adding a 7 x 10 inches on 200 lb cold press paper, it was a ref supplied by Li Newton for a WDE event on Wet canvas.

HEAP HEAVEN
                                                                 
This was also from a ref that Marianne (WC Buddy) supplied and it is on 11 x 13 gessoed watercolor paper, Painted with acrylics.
JOY
                                                                           
 Another WC Buddy Mary Moore supplied a gorgeous ref that I painted an 8 x 10 inches on 200 lb cold press paper using mixed media (acrylics and watercolor).

 CHINESE LANTERNS IN AN ORIENTAL VASE
                                     

The ref for the following painting was supplied by Connie Van Winnssen (another WC Buddy) and it is 8-1/2 x 11 inches  on 140 lb cold press paper with watercolors.

THE WHARF AT TWILIGHT
                                                         

The next was from a ref supplied by Athena from Greece (WC Buddy) and it is water color on 5 x 8 inches on 140 lb. paper with watercolors.
PITHARIA(Antique Olive Jug)
                                                                         
                                                                     
The following is "after JUDI BETTS" (renowned artist) from a lesson on midtones given by her in a Watercolor artist magazine and a ref supplied by Kat Van Hookens.  This is the photo

and this is the painting done on 140 lb Arches cold press with watercolors and the size is 10 x 13 inches.

  FAMILY GATHERING
                                                               
The next two are from refs from Ros Jenke in Australia.  The first from her I painted on  6 x 14 inches 200 lb watercolor paper with watercolors and acrylics for the light grass.

 A YARD OF RUST
                                                                     
The second was from a photo that she took in the Melbourne, Australia Museum and this is my interpretation and it is on 7-1/2 x 10-3/4 inches 140 lb Montval paperwith watercolor.  This is the photo....
