Watercolor Drawings

Watercolor Drawings

Immediacy and accuracy are what I strive for with these watercolor drawings. Like the paintings, they are drawn directly from nature, even if the conditions aren't very comfortable. The following are first sketched in pencil or ink and then painted with Daniel Smith watercolors. When I use tinted paper, opaque white is mixed with the transparent watercolor.

Great Blue Heron

Fringed Gentian

Pipsissewa

 

Closed Gentian

Shinleaf

Bird & Egg

Wild Ginger / Gray Tree Frog / Ruffed Grouse / Huron Tansy / Wild Strawberry
