Some of my cards

I've taken watercolor classes for several years and started combining my calligraphy with the paintings. Now I do many of the cards with just the paintings on them. Some are a combination of my plein aire painting class in the summer where we paint on site in private gardens and select places like a nursery near Joliet or the Morton Arboretum and some are studio work. They depict the beauty of nature that I love and the soft pastel colors. Also there is a series of mixed media cards that combine washes of color in the background and papers and pressed flowers with quotes on the side. I think I included three of them in this post.

Hooray for you! Beautiful, Marge.
p.s. Is the time that you post correct when it shows up on your post? Mine is not. Wonder if anyone knows how to fix that?
