Studio News – A Walk in Monet’s Garden New Release

Posted on March 27, 2024 by Maria - FlowingWatersArt

Working on my camera shyness, I thought I’d make a short clip introducing my new painting, ‘A Walk in Monet’s Garden.’ This piece was created on an 18×24 inch canvas, where textured layers of acrylic paints in tranquil blues and lush greens bring the scene to life. I’m eager to hear your thoughts on both the painting and the video. Please make sure to leave a comment below😊

If interested, the original painting is available in my Etsy Shop.

Hope this inspires you today, thanks for stopping by!!

Studio News – Sneak Peeks

Posted on March 23, 2024 by Maria - FlowingWatersArt

I’m thrilled to announce the completion of not just one, but two paintings this week! The weather here has been very rainy and I like to get photos using natural sunlight. So I haven’t had luck today but tomorrow we should be back to that beautiful Florida Sunshine which plays a huge part in my artistic inspiration. In the meantime, I thought I’d give you a couple of sneak peeks of these textured paintings I created with vibrant, happy colors!

Hope you’re having a lovely weekend, thanks for stopping by!!

Studio Update – Online Class

Posted on February 10, 2024 by Maria - FlowingWatersArt

This week I’ve been busy working on a new abstract plus I’m enrolled in an online course called Birdsong & Blossom by Lindsay Green a very talented floral artist in Northern Ireland.

These birds were a warm up exercise for the class and I wasn’t crazy about them at first but I kept my faith and found it amusing how one by one, each bird took on it’s own unique personality. By the time I finished I was in love with them and thought they turned out pretty cute 😊 So stay tuned as I’ll be posting the finished painting shortly.

I recommend hopping over to Lindsay Green’s website and browsing her art and online classes. You can also find her on Instagram at @lynsaygreenart.

Hope you’re having a fantastic weekend, thanks for stopping by!!

Studio Update Yello’s BIG Solo

Posted on January 30, 2024 by Maria - FlowingWatersArt

This is a new 4×12 inch canvas I finished over the weekend. It’s an adorable painting with a textured background and 5 beautiful little birds. Instead of painting flowers I thought it would be fun to add more interest and accent this piece by using paper flowers and leaves. I also added a quote “Sing your song.”

Since this is painted on a 1.5 inch thick canvas, this artwork is ideal as a shelf sitter making it the perfect décor for a desk, shelf or counter but can also be hung on the wall.

‘Yello’s BIG Solo’ is available in my Etsy Shop, if interested.

Hope this inspires you today, thanks for stopping by!!

Studio Update – New Abstract

Posted on January 27, 2024 by Maria - FlowingWatersArt

I hope your weekend is off to a good start! This is the 16×20 inch abstract painting I’ve been working on in the studio. It’s easy to overwork a painting, always thinking it needs more but I’m calling this one finished.

This painting is a stunning piece with lots of texture plus fun splashes and drips of colors. There are a lot of layers which peek through in different places making it all the more interesting. It has a very happy and uplifting vibe to it.

Now the real fun begins, I need a name for it but I’m coming up empty handed. Would love to know what you see and/or feel when you look at this painting so I can give it a title😊

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to hearing from you!!
