Some painting fun

6 x 8 Watercolor on Strathmore CP wc paper

Art Exhibit at Howard Young Hospital August - Oct 1

Just to prove I do some things besides Zentangle now and then!

These are wall watercolors.  
The ones in the exhibit are wc on canvas.
The abstract is collage and acrylic.  

The story on the little bunch of flowers is that the jar is an old original cottage cheese container from the Lockwood Dairy in Plainfield, Il.  The nice jars have been carried around from move to move since the dairy closed as memories of the old dairy and farm life.  Imagine cottage cheese in a glass jar?  

The words on the jars say:
Contents
12 oz liquid
Lockwood Dairy
Plainfield, IL

The little bouquets were door prizes at the church pot luck last night and I painted the painting to give to Mr. Lockwood as a memento of the jars.

  1. Lovely. I used to have an old milk glass jar, one of the little ones, and i managed to lose track of it. It was filled with flour and sealed so it looked like it had milk in it. Your artwork is lovely.
