How long does it take for you do make an oil painting like this? Your colors stay so clean.
Busy planting up the pots and containers in the garden so I can paint from them in the summer sunshine. This oil was sold in 2022 and most years I prop up my easel here for some new work.

You are welcome! I like your work.

Living dangerously. Studio in renovation, and still painting with my little linear palette I bought in France at Sennelier. Nothing can stop a motivated artist!

An illustration showing three green frogs in the foreground, and a child on a swing under a willow tree. There is a gentle breeze and two orange butterflies
A little spring inspired piece.✨ with Spring rain, comes the color green.

Layer by layer on day three—letting watercolor teach me patience as this piece slowly comes to life. Halfway done, and yes… the text box still has its cozy little spot 😁

My helper. He's obsessed with this quilt; it's going to take a mess of tape to de-fur it!

Was this the same one you did in another medium? it reminds me of Costa Rica 💙
Inspired by my son. Whom is learning to rediscover his imagination through children’s books. The moment they step into a children’s book, they come alive again.

Back at it with this underwater scene today. A fish, a curious brave little girl, and one squid trying to save his friend from the net.

Look at the colors! My dear friend, took photographs of my work. I’m working on layering, and this is not complete yet. However, I love being inspired by others, and hope this inspires those who are in the midst of a book Journey. #childrensbooks

I strive for my children's book artwork to be aspirational and motivate kids to dream big. If you have a passion project that needs artwork, I can help.

Living for the moments when illustrations slowly stitch themselves into a story—color by color, page by page. I wonder how many smiles are born from the hours inside one drawing, bringing the world together one small smile at a time.

"Art is not what you see, but what you make others see." — Edgar Degas For me, art for children's picture books is the highest calling for an artist. It's an opportunity to cultivate the world's most vital resource, the imagination of children. If you have a passion project for children, I can help: https://www.studio-w.art/kidlit

“The Octopus Under” is coming alive — the color story is flowing beautifully through every layer of watercolor. This piece is shaping up to be something special 🐙💙 If you love marine-inspired art or vibrant textures, keep an eye on this one. #CBWI #WatercolorArt #MarineArt #CreativeProcess
