"Leaf Pattern" 12" x 16" Arches 140lb These leaves covered my driveway and are all from the same tree, a silver maple. They do not have the brilliant colors of other species but the variety intrigued me. M.E. Whitehill |
![]() "Charme rustique / Rustic Charm" 12 x 16 pouces / inches Arches 140 gros grain / rough This still life in watercolour was done from those beautiful items in front of me (not from photo). An artist friend of mine told me to put the painting into a juried competition. It was Finalist at the National " RĂªves d'Automne " in 2006 and the winning paintings were exhibited in Baie Saint-Paul during that Fall Festival presented in the majestic Charlevoix area.

![]() "Union Village Covered Bridge" 16" x 12" Winsor & Newtown watercolors on Richeson 140 lb. cold press Vermont is at the peak of color right now and this is what it looks like. I painted this from a photograph in a style I call "shape painting." Shapes become individual wet-on-wet paintings and interact by sitting next to one another combining into a quilt of color.
