"Vintage Appeal"

"Vintage Appeal" 18" x 24" watercolor by Carrie Waller

I'm finally finished. I have a couple tweaks to do but other than that I'm calling this one done. I started this painting during my workshop in February. I'm going to do a modified version for my upcoming workshop in Baton Rouge, LA in May.

We are in clean out and sort mode as we prepare to move to Japan. I can't believe it is already March even though looking outside it still looks like December. Time is flying by.

Watercolor Workshop and The Art of Watercolour magazine

I had 19 wonderful students for my workshop over the weekend.

I just got back from a  fabulous time this weekend in New Orleans.  I was hosted by the Louisiana Watercolor Society workshop chairman Susan Henning and she has hosting down to a science.  It was a wonderful experience including a dinner party and wonderful dinner out at La Provence restaurant.

I thought I would share with you some of the photos from my workshop.

"Vintage Appeal" 18" x 24" this is the work in progress I worked on in the workshop.  I also  worked on an  8" x 10" version.

I also had an exciting text from a friend while I was in New Orleans saying that he saw my painting in The Art of Watercolour Magazine.  I knew it would be out at some point but didn't know when.  My painting "Going Green" won 2nd place last summer in the 43rd Louisiana Watercolor Society's International exhibition.

"Vintage Appeal" work in progress

Hi Everyone,

"Vintage Appeal" 18" x 24" watercolor work in progress.  It's so good to take pictures along the way.  I'm noticing all of my not so straight jar tops.  I will fix this.

I'm gearing up for a watercolor workshop this weekend.  "The Art of Painting Glass" in Covington, Louisiana.  This painting will be my demo.  I'm hoping to complete this 18" x 24" version before I leave and demoing the same painting at 8" x 10".
