I am a watercolorist living in the desert Southwest, a native of that area. My husband and I enjoyed traveling in our motorhome and I have taken many photographs to be used as reference photos for future paintings on these trips. I have been painting since 2000, it is a passion for me and I have enjoyed exploring all the different subjects to paint; landscapes, florals, portraits, etc. Please feel free to comment below or at susanroper@cox.net.

Silverton to Ouray
After weeks of not working on this, I finally finished it yesterday while painting with the Thursday afternoon watercolor group. We critiqued this and deemed it finished. Now, on to painting.....what?
Beautiful. What a great landscape artist you are. Our prayers are for your DH's speedy recovery so you can continue to travel and paint. Congrats on your new arrival too.
Coni...Thanks so much for your nice comments. Every once in awhile I paint something that I, too, like and this is one of them. I met all my goals I set when I first started this and that doesn't always happen!
Thanks, Linda I had to remove as spam message advertising GPS-guided trails to this area, so it was good to hear from someone who actually wanted to comment on my painting! I absolutely resent those who will use others' blogs for their personal gain! Go away, spammers!
really nice Susan. Loved your recent postings on the Silverton to Ouray. It is a great area and so full of painting opportunities. Thanks too for the kind words on my art blog.
Susan,

ReplyDeleteSusan, this is beautiful. I really like everything about it especially the background mountains and the wildflowers!
ReplyDeleteHaving lived near this area many years ago, your painting brought back fond memories. This is a lovely painting of the Ouray and Silverton location.
