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!

There's Still Life Watercolors by Bertie Brown

There's Still Life
original watercolor still life w/bottle, sunflower, apples: 11" x 14"

Sophie Says
what ho
i really want to know
who’s lying in that manger bed

with a stable roof o’er His head
and why are there reindeer
flying in the night sky
with a guy in a sleigh
following close behind
And
there’s a tree in our house
with packages strewn about
and Mommy's in a fuss
baking lots of good stuff
it’s confusing, you know
for a six year old, so
i’ll just ask BB
she'll explain it to me!

Mamie's Plate Still Life Watercolors by Bertie Brown

                                                                   Mamie's Plate
original still life watercolor w/pitchers, plate:15" x18" 

Fancy Stance
original drawing w/sherbet glass, marbles:10" x 12"

cast all your cares
you must let them go
He wants to provide
His word says it’s so
but
if i do not learn
from my past mistakes
i thwart all the grace
and just run in place
yet
there is a rock
and a mercy seat
where grace is revealed
in humility
now
this cornerstone
it beckons to me
i bow myself down
and freely receive

Rhythm & Blues (Series) by Bertie Brown

Rhythm & Blues


Rhythm & Blues

A bottle once buried in sand

Shells found on the beach

Fabric patterns, colors, and folds

Form rhythms the objects now hold

And the color blue

An important element too

All conjure up an image

Of sea upon dry land.
