Mixed Media Paintings
Sometimes you feel like working with delicate watercolours, while other times the boldness of acrylic paints suits your mood perfectly. At times, pencil crayons or vibrant markers are the ideal choice to bring your vision to life. Then there are those moments when all these mediums come together, inspiring a unique creation. What emerges from this blend of materials is always an unexpected and delightful surprise.

Marge and Henry were enjoying a lovely visit with each other. The day was early and the coffee was hot. As the two friends talked away the morning only one thing was missing. After some time it came to Marge and she said, “we really do need some cookies”. Henry cried, That’s It! I knew something was missing. Here started the mission for cookies. Now to find a bakery.

What a sight to see, a whole field of smiling sunflowers. The warmth of the sun seems to be captured in every one as they sway in the warm breeze. A good day to be a butterfly indeed.
Alien Fish Lady
5.5” x 8” Mixed Media Painting
December 2024
When I first started painting I didn’t want to waste a drop of paint. Actually, I am the same today. Hate wasting anything. Now I have a stay wet palette which helps with the acrylic paints. Before that I didn’t want the paint to dry out so I just created something from what was left over at the end of the painting day. Sometimes cool things like my alien fish lady appeared from the extra paint.
