Today is the first day of the new school year for my boys, plus our first Palette Club meeting of the season. After our meeting we had a show and tell and I shared my mural with the group. Talking with my fellow artists about upcoming shows helped inspire tonight’s art work. I decided to channel a bit of Georgia O’Keeffe for my landscape watercolor. I took a picture of a field with hay bales so I can perhaps paint some on my murals for the next trip up to camp, but today I realized that it would make a good abstract impressionist landscape.

I’m pretty happy with the way this one turned out. I think it knocked the cubist pear painting out of the running. I have only a few days left before the deadline so it will be decision time soon.

I am split between Van Gogh and O’Keeffe as my favorite famous watercolor artist; who is your favorite watercolor painter?
