The lovely Winnie has been a frequent model. 10 x 14 on Arches paper, with Daniel Smith, Schminke, Senelier and other pigments and Escoda and princeton brushes. I do these on commission using photos which I sometimes take if the customer's photos are too blurry. They make great gifts, and I make holiday tree ornaments with the watercolor portraits inside.

Title or Location: Feathered Monarch
The Bald Eagle has been a national emblem of the United States since 1782. These majestic birds of prey embody strength, resilience, and an untamed spirit. My painting is not just about the bird itself, but also about what it represents universally, liberty, power and the untamed beauty of nature. I thank Louise De Masi for inspiring this piece.
