This week at Brush-Paper-Water...


A New Day
watercolor, 16" x 24"
Verena Heroux

This week marks the second anniversary of the watercolor showcase! As I did last year, I've posted a retrospective slide show featuring one work by each of the artists who has appeared on the blog during the past year -- a grand total of 25 in 2010. My thanks to all the artists who participated by sharing their work and their histories and by spreading the word about the blog.

I received many more images than I could post from most artists. The painting shown here was one of my favorites, but it didn't fit the flow of Verena's feature so was set aside. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.

For 2011, I'm planning to make some changes to the format I've followed for the past two years. At this point, I'm not entirely sure where I'm headed, but I want to give myself a bit more flexibility and maybe give you a few surprises. I hope you'll stick around for the fun!!

    Happy Anniversary, Chris, and thanks for all the work you do to create and keep this blog running. I so enjoy seeing new artists and seeing "old friends" showcased, too!

    I like how this piece, though not abstract, could actually be interpreted that way. And all with watercolor! That's impressive. I work with acrylic, so I'm all-admiring when other artists use different media in new ways. Bravo.
