#48, #49 ACEO Watercolors- Sheryl



These are two of the ACEO watercolors I painted this week.  They are 2.5 X 3.5" and I like to switch up my painting size, so these work in that area.

    Really liking these and especially the star fish and sea glass. I would be proud to hang either one.

    Sheryl, I still don't know how you paint so well on such a small area. Nice!

    Thanks, Annette- I appreciate that!

    I didn't think I could paint that small either, Dora-turns out its fun!

    ...these are so pretty. I love them. The orange color is fantastic, and I love the sea glass!

    Thank you, Kelly! The small size is fun for a change and I am working on the sea glass transparency.

    Hi Sheryl, I've been traveling in California poppy country for several days specifically to enjoy wildflowers, but didn't have the patience to paint any -- so thank you!! I love the one that's taller, the wisp of leaves indicated (instead of the tangle of them all), and the distant field as a wash of color against the sky.

    Thank you, Lorrie! I just love poppies and have many blooming in my garden right now!
