2010 Pottery #1 by Andy Smith

6"x4" Miniature Original Watercolor
$225.00 ~ Contact the studio
A simple composition of pottery.

Thom commented on my choice of subjects...
I pretty much paint where ever I have last been.
Since I do so much historical sightseeing it may
seem like Lancaster County however it is pretty
much all over the place. There is a good
variety even on my show stand. The blog does
allow me to experiment a bit more because the
size is small and I am not committed to a large
painting. I cannot get bored with so much variety
in subjects!

2010 Winter Series #16 ~ Andy Smith, watercolors

4"x6" Miniature Original Watercolor
$350.00 ~ Contact the Studio

Inspiration is everywhere. This is my bicycle route...
Finally the road was dry and I could get out for a ride.
The snow was still piled pretty high on the sides.
This is a perfect scene to practice painting trees.
I have been studying trees and trying to improve the
way I paint them.

Lightship Chesapeake ~ Inner Harbor, MD ~ Andy Smith, watercolor

6"x4" Original Watercolor
SOLD

The Lightship Chesapeake...
Another painting from our weekend trip to
Inner Harbor. I am not a boat painter and
have a limited knowledge about boats but I
could not miss these reflections. The late
afternoon sun created this wonderful
reflection in the water that I just had to paint.

Night Sky ~ Full Moon by Andy Smith, watercolors

4"x6" Original Watercolor
$225.00 Contact the studio

Last month, late at night, I was sitting
at my wife's desk and looked out the window
and this was my view. The sky was a deep
dark blue with no clouds. The moon was full
and bright and casting light on the snow that
was laying on the branches of the tree.
It is a little quirky but an interesting perspective.

Daily Painter for me means the small painting
I painted for today. I follow the guidelines set out
by artist
Duane Keiser . I start and finish a
miniature watercolor almost daily. It gets posted
three places; here, on my personal blog and on
the Daily Painters Blog. I also always have a larger
painting (or two!) on my board that I work on.

"Maine Coast" By Debra Tritt-Kreiger


"Maine Coast" 4"x6" Watercolor on 140lb Arches Paper

This is a small painting I did from a photo reference I took from our trip to Maine. I loved the way the mist softens the background. Gives the painting a little mystery.
