Welcome

Welcome to my blog where you can view a sampling of my watercolor paintings and discover why for me, Art Is Instrumental. These, as well as many more in my studio, are for sale and looking for good homes!

Methods and Madness

Sometimes I paint fast and loose

Other times quite controlled

The subject decides the method

But each work has the same goal:

A painting that is successful

And beautiful to behold!

Bloom Anew

BB says

I hope and pray that soon

BB says

my kindred month of June

Bb says

will hum it’s friendly tune

I will laugh at last 

‘cause she’s come back

fair weather in her sack

Fine Whine

my sister says

you are gonna get it

my sister says

 you get a weather credit

PinStripes Still Life Watercolors by Bertie Brown

PinStripes

original watercolor still life w/lemon, apples, pottery: 15" x 15"


Tuff Stuff

There once was a spring breeze named Sough

Not harsh nor decidedly tough

He nudged winter’s huff

Said “pick up your stuff”

And blew it away with a puff

this winter has stayed long enuff!

Heads Up Sunflower Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Heads Up

original watercolor sunflowers: 5" x 7"

now the poser said

to his buddies in the bed

why can’t we simply try

to lay our views aside

let’s get along today

‘cause that’s the better way

to live in peace and harmony

will benefit us all you see
