Rose Study, 5x8 watercolor by Stevie Denny

I haven't posted any work in so long. This past year I was caught up in 50th high school reunion planning, as well as volunteering for some other events, and time got away from me. Although I mostly paint in oils, I like to dabble in watercolors, and this past summer I spent some time practicing. This is a little rose study I did.

I recently painted these roses at a session with my friend Krista Eaton, picked fresh from her garden.

While I was putting on the final touches back at my own studio, I had just finished and was moving this painting from my easel to a shelf. Somehow it slipped from my hands and landed face-down on the floor.  Since we have two dogs, of course it picked up some of their fur.  It seems like the fur never goes away, no matter how often we vacuum.  I carefully removed as much of the loose hair as I could with a soft brush, but it's safe to say that Missy and Chewy have contributed something to this painting, too!
