Tulips on Parade
Happy Sunday, friends! 💚
Bluebird and Tulips – 9 x 12 inch watercolor
I recently painted a vase full of pretty tulips and a sweet little bluebird. I always love painting flowers and birds. 😊
Red Tulip – 7 x 10 inch watercolor
I also painted a single red tulip in my sketchbook. This simple tulip makes me happy. I can feel the movement of the leaves and love that bold red color.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love. Until next time, share a smile and stay excellent!

Looking forward to Spring
I’ve been thinking about Spring and decided to paint some tulips.
Hope your day is wonderful. 💚
Lavender Tulips – soft and loose
I had some fun with the leaves on this one.
Magenta tulips – inspired by the beauties in my yard. I can’t wait to seem them again this Spring.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love.
Until next time, share a smile and shine on!

Spring flowers and birds
I have a few recent paintings to share today inspired by nature’s beautiful gifts.
Happy Sunday, friends! 💚
A sweet little birdie watercolor with just a touch of ink.
Watercolor floral with my favorite soft spring colors.
Flowers and birds always make me happy. I hope they brighten your day as well.
I will probably cut back to one blog post a week for a while. I need to slow down a little but I will continue to paint and sketch. You can find me (and hopefully follow me) on Instagram at pattyanneart.
Until next time, take care and be well!

Pink Lily watercolor doodle
I have a fun watercolor and ink doodle to share today.
Happy Thursday, friends! 😊💚
A few of my favorite things to paint…flowers and leaves.
I used a big round #12 brush for my watercolor underpainting. Then the decision was to keep painting adding more detail or stop painting and proceed later with ink.
I decided to go forward with ink sketching using a Micron pen.
Pink Lilies – 12 x 18 inch
I like how the ink wakes up the flowers and the doodles add a little extra fun.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love. Thank you for stopping by and following me on this creative journey.
Until next time, share a smile and shine on!

Soft floral watercolor and supplies
A soft pink floral to share today and a view of my painting supplies.
Happy Thursday, friends! 😊
I used a Micron pen to draw a few lines as a base for my floral vines.
I have a serious color crush on the combination of quinacridone rose and yellow ochre. It creates this lovely peachy pink shade. I couldn’t resist and once again had to use it in this painting. 💗
Now on to my supplies… (well used and quite messy) 😉
These chop stick holders are great for propping up my brushes.
I love my little bunnies, they are so cute! 🐰
I use two watercolor palettes and an additional mixing tray. My watercolor paints are a combination of both Winsor & Newton and Daniel Smith brands.
Princeton watercolor brushes are my favorite and I have been slowly replacing my old brushes with them.
Thank you for stopping by and following me on this creative journey.
Until next time, share a smile and shine on!

Thinking of Spring
A little floral painting for you today as I’m thinking of Spring.
Happy Thursday friends! 😊
I love the combination of pinks and greens together in this painting. 💗
Supplies used
watercolor paper 140 lb.
watercolor brushes, round 12, liner 2, and dagger 1/4″
Watercolors
Daniel Smith: green gold, permanent green, quinacridone magenta, quinacridone rose, and yellow ochre
Winsor & Newton: cerulean blue
Using the wet on wet technique, I painted shapes in clean water first then dropped in wet paint. The dagger brush was used to make some nice leaf shapes. I left white space on many leaves and didn’t fuss with the shapes.
Tips
– Allowing the paint to mix and mingle on the paper creates some nice results.
– Keep a tissue on hand for those times when you drop too much water on your paper.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love. Thank you for stopping by and following me on this creative journey.
Until next time, share a smile and shine on!
