Sunlight Sonata

Sunlight Sonata

14" x 24"

Pastel

Since we've experienced a very rainy, cloudy, and cool spring, here's a little sunshine to brighten your day.  These three little turtles were just begging to be in a piece of art as they basked in the sunlight.  Enjoy looking at them on the logs while listening to this beautiful composition by Paul Roy titled "Sunlight Sonata":

Here's some other art work that I've been creating here in the studio recently:

 "Eye Exam"

4" x 4"

Watercolor

"Eagle Eye"

4" x 4"

Watercolor

I've done these little studies on aquaboard, an archival hardboard panel with an acid-free textured clay surface that absorbs watercolors like a fine paper.  These panels can be sealed and framed without glass, keeping colors and textures true to life.  I have sprayed the finished artwork with UV spray varnish and then coated them with 3 coats of Liquitex Satin Varnish.  Really like the resulting beautiful surface.  You do not need to put them behind glass.  Just frame them like an oil painting, if you desire framing.  

Be brave and courageous!
