I continued working on small watercolor paintings (these are 8x10s), exploring color relationships of course, but many with extreme textural elements to increase visual interest on even a "minimal design" painting. I apologize for the quality of the larger photos--the textural changes in the imagry was difficult for my camera to keep focused:

And, finally, my largest painting ever...so large I needed to make it a diptych to move it around! This watercolor
was specifically painted for a specific place and event--the Uncharted Water Show at the Hudson Healing
Hospital in Hudson, Wisconsin, sponsored by the Phipps Center for the Arts.
