Hi Ellen,  I love your new  art work.  The colors are so clean and vibrant. I also like the texture.  Keep it up......Colleen

Hi Ellen,

Thanks for your comment on 3/12 (that shows you how often I visit this site). My images are all photographs, altered with Photoshop software and sometimes a little pastel or vine charcoal, so it isn't a surprise that it looked like a photograph. I've had people tell me at shows after looking at my work that they love my watercolors even though the title cards clearly state the media as photography. I print my images on  rag printmaking paper and I think that makes them look more like paintings.

Great work!  Your creative boarder and textures are wonderful.

You have a very special talent and I am sure you will do well from from selling your paintings. It will not be long before your talent is discovered nationally. As you only mention a local show in your profile I would suggest you seek out someone who could promote your work nationally. Based on the photo with your mural you are even prettier than your paintings and for some people this helps contribute to their success.I can say this because I have lived a long time and old people get excused.Best of luck and have a happy, sucessful life. I share your passion for art and travel and I am sure your dream to travel will come true/
