Art From Photographs

"Peggy's Cove" -  20 X 16



"Fresh Lobster" - 11 X 14


I go everywhere with a camera. I can find something to photograph in every day life. So imagine what I do when on vacation to a new and exciting place. On a trip to Halifax a couple of years ago, I took lots of photos. Two of my favorites have resulted in a couple of watercolors. Loving color, it was only natural that I would paint the red boat in Peggy's Cove. This sea side village was a painter and photographer's paradise. A second watercolor also resulted.  As a tropical artist, I  am always drawn to the sea. These two watercolors are available for purchase. Prints and cards are available through RedBubble.

  3. Yes! It's not just having the camera, but being able to see the images immediately. No need to develop the film.

    Thank you both for your comments. It makes me feel that I am having an art conversation and not just talking to myself:0)
