Blessed Beltane



as Beltane is upon us
the half way mark between spring equinox and summer solstice
this painting came to life
a man and his kin bear
most likely because the bears around here have woken
they now walk  the earth with us
daily i think of them
~

Lovely Spring to you ~

Watercolors




learning
playing
exploring possibilities
of watery paint
a new journey


two very different styles
the first i drew with masking fluid, waited for it to dry and filled in the spaces with watercolor

the second was painted...
