Welcome to my blog! This will be the first of many posts. I plan to show a new watercolor painting every other day so please visit me often.
Today, I’m posting “Elephant Hug”. I chose this painting because a friend called me after seeing it exhibited at our local Library. I had not heard from her in awhile, so it was a nice surprise.
“Elephant Hug” was inspired by a photo I took several years ago of elephants at the Louisville Zoo. I loved the way they looked with each other and studied the photo for quite awhile before getting down to painting it. My friend loved it and I hope you do, too.

April 15th, 2008 at 8:33 amI think this is a superb painting, Judy. Aside from it being technically accurate and well balanced with color, it has personality. I think a lot of people get too focused on the painting itself and ensuring that everything is accurate that they overlook finding an interesting subject to paint in the first place. This is friendly and fun and eye pleasing as well.
