“A State of Perpetual Surprise” to appear in the Rhode Island Watercolor Society’s Juried Simply Watercolor Show, November 15-December 12, 2025

I’m certainly glad the wonderful people at the Rhode Island Watercolor Society seem to understand my art, as evidenced by their acceptance of this whimsical piece. Sometimes I feel like my work is a bit of comic relief in an angsty and serious time and that’s perfectly fine with me – but the tiny figure in the window in this piece represents something important to me. I can’t presume to know what it might evoke in the viewer, but comments are encouraged.

Watercolor + ink, 2025

Simply watercolor opens on November 15, with the opening reception on Saturday, November 22 at 1pm.

“Greener pastures” wins third prize from the Rhode Island Watercolor Society

Greener Pastures, watercolor + gouache, 2025

In addition to exhibiting art at their Pawtucket gallery, the Rhode Island Watercolor Society holds a number of online shows each year, and the current exhibit, In the City is where you can find this work.

Juror Bill Lane remarked:

“The color palette caught my attention, the drawing caught my intrigue, and the playfulness made me smile. Great depiction of a busy city scene with masterful shapes and details throughout the watercolor. What fun!!”

Bill is a master watercolorist – I’m a huge fan of his work and so pleased to be chosen from such a beautiful group of paintings in a variety of media.

“Greener Pastures” was inspired by my youth – a mashup of my love for the greens of Iowa summers, my yearning to escape to the big city, and my obsession with the Wizard of Oz.

I went through a phase, post Covid, where painting from photos or from life was challenging, and I relied on my memories and imagination to fuel my art. It was frustrating at first but I like the evolution that occurred.
