Flowers & a Camel

A Camel painted in PanPastels and some pen & Ink added.
I thought I'd like to try the combination of mediums, and it worked quite well.
The Camel was painted for Wet Canvas, Animal & Wildlife May Challenge




Calla Lilies in watercolor and Inktense pencils.  I loved the bright pink color of these lilies.
This painting was painted for the Wet Canvas Floral Forum's May 2017 Challenge

Watercolour & pen painting

A watercolour and pen painting.  I haven't used pens with watercolor for a very long time, so discovered that most of my pens had dried up except one, which turned out to be water-soluble!  So I had fun trying to mop up the blurrs and runs into my watercolor!  But now I've got used to this pen, I might try more watercolor & pen paintings with it, as it's quite fun.


Bright tulip

A tulip done for the "Bright Flower Challenge" for the PaintMyPhoto Website.

This was rendered in PanPastels and soft pastels.





Red Mushrooms painted for the "Loose Watercolor Group"

I tried to paint very loosely with watercolor for this challenge

Watercolour of tulips in a vase

This was a watercolour and Inktense pencils of a bunch of tulips in a vase.  I often use  Inktense pencils with watercolour to give some texture to my watercolor paintings
