Watercolor sketch of my summer straw bag...

Watercolor landscapes on canvas...

 I am thrilled to be back in the studio and working on a new series of watercolor landscapes on canvas. They feel so fresh, light, and inspired to me which reflects a lot of how I was feeling this summer on the road between my time out on the Cape and then in Africa.

Kenya & Tanzania & Zanzibar, Africa

August 2015
 I had the great opportunity of traveling through Kenya and Tanzania this summer. It was a life changing experience for me and a beautiful memory to carry in my heart always. It won't be long before I return. This I know.
There are no words to really describe how beautiful the experience was, let alone to watch my children engage with nature and Africa's wildlife in such an outstanding way. I was endlessly inspired with everything around me, the landscape, the the spirit of the people, the wildlife, the colours, textures...
The skies are bigger than you can imagine and the days end with sunsets rendering you speechless. To walk with the Masai and take in the vistas from the Masai Mara to ocean around Zanzibar will be so inspiring for this year of painting ahead. 
These are just a few snapshots that I wanted to post.
