Gertrude and Heathcliff – Watercolor

Gertrude & Heathcliff watercolor by Yvonne Pecor Mucci

Gertrude & Heathcliff watercolor by Yvonne Pecor Mucci (Framed 11 x 14, Available)

Gertrude and Heathcliff watercolor depicts my go to place down the shore. In this painting, I wanted to push the variety of color found in the water.

When I look at this watercolor it makes me chuckle a little imagining those birds carrying on a conversation. The name is a nod to the past when comedian Red Skelton performed skits about two seagulls named Gertrude and Heathcliff.

This painting is available and can be shipped.

Surf Fishing Down The Shore – Watercolor

Entertainment by the ocean’s edge is never ending down the shore.  It was late afternoon on a cloudless day and I wanted to capture the contrast of the white surf against the dark blue water in this watercolor.  The surf fisher was lit up by the sun casting long shadows on the sand which set up a familiar scene that I had to paint.  It is painted on 140lb D’Arches watercolor paper.

You can click on the image to see a more detailed view of the painting.

This painting will be part of the Gloucester County College exhibition starting May 4th through the first week in June.  Artist reception is May 4th at 12pm till 2pm.

Crandon Park Watercolor

Key Biscayne’s Crandon Park is one of the best beaches near Miami.  I love that it has huge palm trees on the beach.  This watercolor was painted as a gift to someone who also loves this beach, maybe more than me.  It is painted on 140 lb D’Arches watercolor paper.  I masked out the trunks of the palms which let me paint the sky, water & beach with more flow, but in hindsight I would only have masked the lifeguard stand.

Oh, how I wish I was still sitting on this beautiful beach!  I wanted to capture the sea grape trees and the ocean reef.  The trees were masked out and the background blocked in.  Once a general background color was in place I could remove the masking fluid and concentrate on the trees.  I don’t like to leave masking fluid in place for more than color blocking.  It was important to keep the sky palette different from the ocean while incorporating all colors in the trees and reef.

This sketch was done on the first day of vacation.  Wish there was more time to sketch, but now I need to start painting.

Seashells by Yvonne Pecor Mucci

Seashells by Yvonne Pecor Mucci

The holidays are over and it is time to get back to painting. I had set up a little still life of seashells during the holidays to hold me over till I figured out what the next watercolor subject would be. I sketched out the shells on 140 lb Arches paper but didn’t start it for some unknown reason. I woke to a dusting of snow on the lawn which was the perfect excuse to start painting something that reminded me of warmer days.

The shells were masked out and the background was painted using salt and splatter techniques to simulate the sand. Once the masking fluid was removed I began working on the shells trying to incorporate the colors used in the shells into the background with more glazing and splatter. Today it was almost 60 degrees, so maybe the painting helped!
