This is yesterday's watercolor in acrylic. I am still working on it but thought I would post it and than get some distance; leave it for an hour or two and return this afternoon.(Did I mention it has been subzero in the Midwest and that I haven't left the house due to deplorable road conditions!?) I used a table top easel and am realizing I may need to invest in a bigger easel. I have a portable easel but I have issues with its stability. The top painting is a one that I have been playing with for days. I seem to prefer edges that are not as strong leaving the shape to be defined by the person viewing the painting. I believe the term is painterly.

Happy new year! Luscious colors and free flowing paintings! Starting the year right:)
all your work is Painterly Cathy. Hope the forces you to paint more!
Both works have so much light, they glow!
The top painting is just gorgeous! My favourite. But then I´m a sucker for close -ups of flowers :)

Love these flowers, great work.
Hugs.
I've heard about the "polar vortex" cold out in the midwest and don't envy you. It's been cold here but nothing like what you guys have had.
Lovely,luscious, painterly flowers. I agree with AK who said all your work is painterly. I would love to see your work in a show. The whole wall filled with your vibrant paintings.
Oh yes Cathy, these are certainly painterly. Lovely!!
We have had similar road conditions most of this winter.. i feel like I am living under house arrest!!
Art does make it bearable though doesn't it.
