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!

PeachyPosers Sunflower Watercolors by Bertie Brown

PeachyPosers

original watercolor sunflowers/peaches: 10" x 14"


my sunflower deli

has at long last closed

the frailty of my girls

is sadly exposed 

gone are the bonnets

framing their face

like Emily’s sonnets

they’ve fallen from grace

their once dripping nectar

has all been drawn

their glorious beauty

vanished, gone

the busy bumble bees

have packed their suitcases

backpacking butterflies

have flown to new places

has anyone noticed

those feisty goldfinches

have suddenly fled

good riddance, you grinches!

so farewell, Golden Girls

of this i am certain

it’s that time of year

to draw summer’s curtain....
