A re-creation of a smaller watercolor done years ago, based on the basic composition.

San Jose Salt Ponds
This last image is the photo I am working off of. I have finished the underpainting (first image) and am now trying to get the colors right...trial and error...and very frustrating at times. A color I mix looks perfect in one light, then completely off in the photo or in a different light!

Three Little Sea Turtles
Crayon, Oil Pastel and India Ink on canvas experiment. I like the turtle I did on plywood better with this technique...the black wash just doesn't take to the canvas as darkly as it did the wood and makes it far less dramatic.
Big, Bad Bunny (close to done)
Touching up the edges here, adding some bronze to the brown for a little shiny pop!

Splat!
Still working on this series of four. Ready now to glaze on layers of happy yellows, golds and orange!
Trash Mountain
Taken out by the bay on what used to be, years ago, the San Mateo dump and is now a park of sorts.
Started this last summer (at least) and hated it. Accurate compositionally (except for my choice to remove all buildings and telephone wires from the background hills), I decided to rework it some more to see where I can take it. It looks a lot better here in the photo for some reason....
