Big Ol' Steamrollin' Print Invitational

Pratt Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute is a real treasure. Located right in the center of Utica, NY it has a long tradition of excellence.
They also have a fantastic small museum, which at the moment is showing the "Monet to Matisse, the Age of French Impressionism" traveling exhibition, AND they have the good taste to sell some of my prints at the museum store :)
This week there's even more to love though, with the annual Arts Festival. It's 5 days of special events, a community art show and music!
I've been looking forward to today's "Big Ol' Steamrollin' Print Invitational"since I heard about it last month!

"Ribbons" Watercolor 2012.
Working still with  flow, movement and the lovely sketchy effects of very liquid watercolors.  I like the intensity of the colors and the way that this one holds the viewer's attention with the almost Celtic knot  line configuration.The original is on my wall and is a real conversation starter.

Once again, the original is not for sale but a very good quality print is on Zazzle.com

This one is a little different for me.  It can be difficult to stop before you get too descriptive with a landscape.  I like it because at a distance you see the landscape, but as you get closer you see the lovely variations in color that only happen with watercolor.

The original is not for sale, but you can click on the image to purchase prints starting small and less than $10, or go larger and also inexpensive!
