ORIGINAL CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACT PAINTING IN WATERCOLOR BY COLLEEN SANCHEZ


OLD ONES
Original watercolor on paper
6 X 8
Includes 11 x 14 acid free white backing/mat set
Protected in archival envelope
Ready to fit your 11" x 14" Frame






I had an idea to use the colors of Hawaii, the red earth, the various shades of sand, sea and sky in an abstract piece. I love the turtles and have been able to swim with them a few times, no touching of course. Because of conservation efforts the population has increased in recent years. They are so beautiful and have been here for so long an age and hopefully will continue to thrive in these Hawaiian waters.

"White Rose" by Kathryn Townsend

"White Rose", 11 x 14 In, Oil on Museum Board
Still life painting is a challenge for me--deciding what to paint, how to set it up, all the gear required in the studio to get a good set up and good lighting. I have two big skylights but natural lighting is hard to come by in the Pacific Northwest during the dark months. So I use really big pieces of foam core to create a box around my table for the set-up, which works pretty well until my cat comes in and bats the foam core around because he's hungry. Everything about still life for me is experimental.
Purchase this unframed painting for $175
Contact me if you would like to purchase a plein air frame.

Good bye November ... and here is December!   This fall has been great ~ so much warmer than usual right into the late fall.  Now, though, the cold weather is upon us.

Cuban Coffee and Lime thanks to Photofunia

Just by coincidence today, I discovered an app on Facebook that I've seen used before and I immediately started to play with it. It is strictly for fun but let me warn you, it sucks you in, and I lost all track of time. It is so much fun to use!

Here is some of the things I came up with. Of course, it's also great just for family photos.

Let me know what you think. Have you ever used it? There are even other templates besides art gallery related and I'll show you what I did with those tomorrow!

I'm transitioning to doing more still lifes, but I still have a couple more Utah paintings. This is from the west side of the Waterpocket Fold near the park headquarters, an area blazing with color. I had broken my foot a week before we left for the trip, but by the end was taking some fairly long walks in my "boot."

Two recent studies I did in a large group of watercolor and ink that I ended up happy with. I had experimented with several and some of course ended up as rubbish or to be used as recycled materials for other future mixed media pieces. I liked the differences in the subtle spirit of the first one compared to the richer mood of the second one.

"Vibrance," "Emerge," and "Expression"

"Vibrance" oil on canvas framed 12x12"
"Expression" oil on canvas framed 24x24" SOLD
"Emerge" oil on canvas framed 10x10"
The excitement of painting these butterflies brought me back to the number 1 rule in painting....ALWAYS paint what inspires you! Try it, and if it doesn't work, at least you attempted.
My inspiration for this collection was very much "jewelry-inspired." I used rich, bold, strategic colors with thick luscious palette knife strokes to enhance the tactile quality of these paintings. My intentions were that these fluttery creatures would explode off the canvas with great expression while somehow melding into the background color simultaneously. These were created as wall "jewelry" for a special nook in a home....
