"Valentine's Day Bouquet" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor

March 08, 2021

My husband went all out for Valentine’s Day and presented me with this bouquet of hydrangeas, lilies, roses and irises. What a feast for a flower painter! It gave me hope during the horrible Texas winter storm last month.

French Abbey 72 7.jpg

"French Abbey" by Ann McCann 9 X 11" Watercolor

March 01, 2021

I visited the abbey Notre Dame Senanque in Provence several years ago. I did an oil painting of it that I subsequently sold. This week, I painted it again in watercolors in a workshop with instructor Janet Rogers. It brought back fond memories of a wonderful trip. Ah, the smell of lavender and the hum of the hungry bees.

Iris Trio 72 7.jpg

"Iris Trio" by Ann McCann 6 X 8" Watercolor

February 25, 2021

At the beginning of the pandemic, I did a series of iris watercolors that I titled “Corona Irises,” a play on words. Here is a small one I did that is soft and suggestive, the way I like to paint. For the next three days I am taking a Zoom watercolor course with Janet Rogers who got me reinterested in the medium two years ago!

Quince is blooming here with its hot pink/orange flowers. I have been painting them in watercolor (see below) and decided to do one in oil. This is a special panel that has wood sides so is framed and ready to go. I have a photo of this wood frame below.

House Portrait Commission by Ann McCann 8 X 10" Watercolor

February 01, 2021

A realtor friend commissioned me to do a watercolor of this house that she had just sold. She gifted it to the seller. I really like painting house portraits and adding all the little details. Consider one of your house or that of a friend. They make really nice gifts!
