'Watercolor Study of a Male Widow Skimmer (Libellula luctuosa)'

Getting ready for a Dragonfly Exhibit in Lancaster.

Next is a Female Banded Pennant.

I am still trying to work with my new computer

and am finally able to add a new entry.

My tried and true Windows XP antique

died of old age, and I had to order a ne one from Dell.

I taped the painting in one of my frames lying around to get the effect

of no matting- which I am starting to do on many

of my originals. Thought I would use the photo on our blog.

'Watercolor Study of a Muskellunge (Esox masquinongy) in the Barred Phase' by Thom Glace

Transparent Watercolor on Crescent Mat Board

Image Size: 19" x 7".

Non-Professional Photograph.

This is the largest fish study that I have attempted. Twice the size

of any of my previous studies. I had started to increase the

watercolor studies of my dragonfly species, and

enjoyed being able to define more details in the work.

Below are my 3 latest dragonfly studies that I had previously

put up on this blog- all in the larger format, but I now

have the studies  professionally shot to use on nate cards

and giclee prints.

A Note: Tomorrow, January 30th, I have been asked

by the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission to be

part of Pennsylvania's Fly Fishing Heitage.

I will be painting a live demo of the Pink (Humpback) Salmon

and showcasing my work with native fish, especially trout.

Here are the former dragonfly studies:

Male Checkered Setwing Dragonfly

The Adult Male (Light Ble Body) will be on the left and the female

will be on the right in identical cutouts and info written on the mat board.

Tthe final Framing of the Painting with each dragonfly study will be

in a separate cutout of a double matted Crescent Board

identical to what I painted them on. Caligraphy

will be done by a professional that I use

 ( I can paint better than I write!)

Final Size is 24" x 14".

This is the various stages of Part One of my next Watercolor Study

'Watercolor Study of a Mated Pair of Desert Whitetail Dragonflies-

(Plathernis subornata of the family Libellula)'

I was fascinated by this species due to the dramatic mating colors

found on the male (I call it Carolina Blue, since I went to UNC)

versus the marking on the female- which are sepia with

beautiful gold markings on its body.

 They will be mounted in a frame side by side- when finished.

Due to health issues, I have been away from
my watercolors and art shows for much
of this past season. I hope, and have a
good doctor's report recently, to
become my old active self in the near future.
Today I picked up a brush  for the first time in 3 weeks.
A very good sign!

This is a continuation of my large scale dragonfly

Transparent Watercolor Studies. I had

completed a series of 6" x 6" individual

Watercolor Studies, but wanted a larger

format for a show in June that has requested

a larger painting for 2 entries. It is being

held at the Capitol. You should go, if you have a chance!

I hear there will be a few other decent  artists there, also.
