La Loire River Watercolor

This watercolor of the river "La Loire" in France is the last of the needed illustration for the upcoming book of short stories.

I am very excited about seeing this project through, and getting the book in hand soon!
This first one will be in French - so for all you French speaking folks, keep an eye here for the announcement, most likely soon after Christmas.

Grand Fireplace

I was trying to convey the sense of an old grand fireplace. In retrospect I might need to add a slight touch of brighter color.

This is the next to last planned illustration for a new short stories book coming out very soon now.

Watch my amazon author page for it.
