Summer Watercolors

Here are a couple watercolors I have completed this break from school…

This is a painting of Jose, who’s picture I kept as a book mark during my summer travels so that I could remember how sweet he is.

This summer I have been reading like crazy about living a life of love and wisdom.
This is just one of hundreds of phrases that has touched me, it was my first painting with text.
I think I will experiment with inspirational quotes more in my paintings.

My aunt (who is younger than I) is a photographer and asked me to help her learn to paint in watercolors.
This is what I painted for a demonstration.
If you ever want to learn how to paint, I love to teach :)

Artichokes have the most beautiful blooms. A fun still life.
