"Patio Umbrellas"

This watercolor was inspired by the shapes and lines of brightly colored patio umbrellas on a summer day.

The painting is 5x5" on 6x6" paper.

How do I paint white?  With lots of color, of course! Inspired by a visit to Filoli Gardens, these early spring tulips are awash with hues of pink, yellow, and blue. The blue background provides sets off the white blossoms and provides the chilly feeling that early spring has.

The vibrancy of this leaf caught my attention while on a hike at Mount Madonna Park, near Gilroy, CA.  I painted the pebbled background in a rich blue to further increase the vivid yet simple beauty of this single leaf.
