Inspired by Cathy Johnson

 "Pick an art piece and let it inspire you to create."
This is the first challenge of this year at Take The Challenge with Mou.

As I am a great fan of Cathy Johnson and her watercolor art I took one of her paintings from her book,Creating Nature in Watercolor  as my source of inspiration.



In the book, she has a painting named, Fall Glory. I did the same on a gessoed page using my favorite medium, Gelatos. The trees were outlined using Black Pitt artist pen and they were shaded using Pitt artist big brush pen.

I'm also linking this page to SundaySketches
Thank you

  2. Gelatos are new to me - they sound like ice cream! Love what you did with each of your 'flavours'!!

  4. Susan, what a wonderful piece. Isn't it wonderful to be inspired by others? I hope you find that each week within the Sunday Sketches co-op as well. Keep at it and happy new year!
