Hollyhocks for Summer

 "Hollyhocks for Summer"
Original Watercolor by Michele Cooper
Size: 5x3.5"  Price: $35 plus S&H

Once the painting is dry, I usually erase the pencil lines. Sometimes, though, I think keeping just a few lines from the original drawing can make it a touch more personal. You can get a glimpse of the artist's creative process from start to finish.

Summer Flowers, Hollyhocks

 "Hollyhocks with a View"
Section of Original Watercolor
by Michele Cooper

 What a lovely day we are having here in the Pacific NW! I have been relaxing on the deck, surrounded by my beautiful blue hydrangeas and can't wait to paint them......coming soon! :-)

It takes me back to another summer when I painted hollyhocks with a view for the annual plein air event on Whidbey Island.
