WATERCOLORS

Painting what I see...

Three Birdhouses

I was reminded that I had painted these 3 Birdhouses at a Sketchbook Class in Cathy C.'s back garden several years ago...seeing it again on Catherine's blog--I'm reminded how detailed I get and how "loose" I would like to be in my sketches/watercolors. But I've made good use of this watercolor using it many times for a Greeting Card or Note Cards. I sent it once as a "Get-Well Card" and the recipient said she had it matted and framed because they liked it so much :-) Love it when people enjoy my cards. I have a little "Card Ministry" at our Church--In our Ambassadors' Class, we note everyone's birthdays and anniversaries. And there are always "Get-Well" or "Thinking of You" cards to send (especially at our age :-)Posted by Picasa

I have no idea why this is all underlined??? I can't seem to "edit" it out. Still learning.

About Me

My photo
Marj
About 15 years ago, a friend enouraged me to come to a watercolor class. That was the beginning of a hobby that I truly enjoy. A few years later, I joined a "Watercolor Sketchbook Journal" class taught by Catherine Carey author of "A Petoskey Watercolor Journal." see: www.catherinestudio.blogspot.com/ Since then we have taken many trips and watercolored and journaled most of them. My husband and I are now retired and we both enjoy ministering to people through our Church. He does Hospital visits and ministers to the elderly. I have found that sending people greeting cards with my simple watercolor sketches on them seem to be treasured. God has greatly enriched our lives with Beauty and I like to show my gratitude by displaying His Glory in my art. I'm hoping that my watercolors bring joy to others, and praise and worship to our Creator. Marj. M.
