yellow rose sketch with my watercolors
on an afternoon was we were listening to coast-to-coast

my new Yellow Rose blossom
I love, love, love yellow roses.
Back 30 years ago as of July 24, 1982, when we brought our first son home from the hospital, my yellow rose was blooming and I fell in love with this color.
My favorite yellow that I just adore is the yellow that is tinged with pink on the edges, but it seems a little harder to find. This is a Knockout from Wal-Mart, and it’s just yellow, but such a wonderful rich lemon yellow that changes to white as it stays open. And the scent is just heavenly and fragrant, A little spicy and yet sweet too. At first I wanted the yellow to last longer, but the more I grow it the more the white grows on me too. Perfect for a moon garden. Seems to be doing pretty well with a little rose food and moisture. So out came my watercolours, just to sketch, not necessarily produce a finished painting.

and I tried another one with a darker background, but lost my momentum

I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful day.
I have lots of original watercolor paintings, finished and everything, on my etsy shop along with beautiful photographs.

rooster
I added Kim Klassen’s paper stained texture to my original watercolor ‘rooster’ .
used vivid light at 58%
reduced the image size so I could add text and there you have it.
Shared on KimKlassen’s Texture Tuesday
my original painting of this rooster sold on my etsy store sometime last year (but I can still make prints, if you are interested)

and it all started with this photo I took on our trip down the coast of Mexico 2 years ago.

I have just been invited to a phone interview on Monday to a Blog called faboverfifty.com and I don’t even know how to feel, other than very, very flattered. Sara loves my watercolors and my photography. WOWZA….❤ ❦ ❧
