Ashokan Reservoir watercolors

Leena asked me how I frame these small paintings- there's a pic on my website joycewashor.wordpres.com of me in front of paintings.Also, I cut the paper before I paint but I often crop them with a mat before framing. I'll have to take a pic of new white frame and post it!
Thanks Leena for the questions!

Ashokan Reservoir watercolors



One of the first paintings that my husband and I bought (over 25 years ago) was of the Ashokan Reservoir- not a watercolor, an oil by Barbara Boyd. These are reminiscent of that painting. Inspiration can come from your own collection!

Ashokan Reservoir watercolors



Two very different color feelings. We lost power yesterday because of storm - but thankful it didn't last too long. Life is yin/yang!
Both watercolors are 3x3 inches.

I was actually just reading my FB feed and thought this an interesting article. Then it mentions
Think Big!
