Do You See What I See?

I had a special request for a Christmas card design after my post last week. I was so excited to make an addition to my Starry Animals series and tie in one of my favorite Christmas Songs. The title of this painting should give you a clue ;)

Starry Otter

"Starry Otter" 
7"x5" Original Watercolor On Paper

I've added an otter to my Starry Animals series! This little guy was hard to get the proportions correct on. I think he turned out pretty cute though. 
Otters were always one of my favorite animals to visit at the zoo (still are). They're just so much fun to watch! They just glide through the water and always want to play. Who couldn't love them? 

Prints and cards are available with this and other Starry Animals images!

I've been working on a new series lately and this is the first image. I thought they would be cute hanging in a nursery or children's room.

Summer Twilight

"Summer Twilight" 
8"x10" Original Acrylic On Canvas Panel 

                                          

I love how long twilight seems to last in the summer. The sky is brilliant as the sun fades and the stars begin to appear. Makes me want to grab a drink and prop up my feet on the deck and just enjoy the moment.

The Sky Is Awake

"The Sky Is Awake" 
5"x7" Original Watercolor And Pen On Paper

                                

It's amazing when you get away from the city lights and the over glow of surrounding towns. Up in the U.P. over Memorial Day weekend Tanar and I were really honestly able to watch the stars.
 It takes your breath away. 
I tried a little experiment with this painting. I painted the colors of the sky first, blending the paints together the way I wanted and then while it was still wet I sprinkled on some salt. It's just table salt and you could do this at home but I really enjoy the effect. 


This is closer detail of it. You can see where the salt broke up the pigment. Cool huh? 



98 more to go in my 100 day project!
