The Garden Flutist

11 by 14 inches 

I did this under the direction of the watercolor artist, Susan Avis Murphy, on her rivulet technique as explained in her blog. Susan also has a youtube account ( same as her name) where she has a couple of videos demonstrating the technique very clearly. If you are interested in learning this technique, please do hop over there

Bouquet of Cosmos


I opened this blog in 2008 but have not used it until now. I wanted to reserve an art blog under the name artpearls and use it if need may arise in the future. So here it is. I hope to update it regularly in sync with my wordpress account.

This painting is done after an old painting challenge (No. 57) in A Nos Pinceaux 

11 by 14 inches on 140-lbs. Waterford cold pressed paper.
