"Kestrel" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

11"x15" watercolor on 140lb arches paper
 I love to paint wildlife, especially when I actually get to meet my subject. I met this beautiful kestrel at the Charleston Aquarium. They call him Phoenix because his talons were burned when he landed on a live wire. His accident prevents him from being released back into the wild. He was a joy to see and talk to! In the wild he would be a little thinner, but I chose to paint him as beautiful as I saw him.
I also incorporated a new technique I learned from Luke Buck which really gives it a painterly feel.

In a boat and ocean frame of mind. A work in progress watercolor by Linda Young



I'm anxious and getting ready to go on a vacation; this is the start of the painting I will be working on while there.  I'm hoping the  weather cooperates because I paint outdoors under a canopy and if it's raining and damp...well, I may have to take this inside where there is very little room to paint.
Boats and oceans DO make me happy to paint them.  Thanks God, for guiding me..

Lutheran Seminary plein air, Gettysburg Fringe Festival June 10 by Linda Young


The Lutheran Seminary
9 x 12 Watercolor
by Linda Young
This was my first day of painting plein air with several other artists at the Lutheran Seminary in Gettysburg.  I painted as a member of the Gettysburg Fringe Festival plein air painters where about six or so painted at this location.  Those I knew who painted with me were Sue Gray, Claire Carnell, Mary Beth Brath, Mark Brown and me.  There were more; but I don't know their names.

It was a hot day and right away before I even got my easel set up, my home made stake to hold up a larger umbrella broke on the pegs designed to push the "invention" into the ground.  Note to self:  If the ground is really hard...don't try to stomp it into the ground on one big heave!  Easy does it and it might have worked.  Oh, also...getting on higher ground might also mean the ground is solid as a rock.  Go for the shade of the trees, which was a lesson quickly learned!

I realize some of the perspective is off a little on this steeple; but maybe that's what the joy of plein air painting is...it's the feel and the presence of the moment and you project that emotion through brush and color onto the watercolor paper waiting in front of you.

One painting down, eight more to go....
