Jean S. Kaiyou Art

“Bright Eyed and Bushy-Tailed”

I discovered the artwork of Jean S. Kaiyou on Substack recently and just can’t say enough about it. You can find her on Substack – @jeanskaiyou “Unfinished Sketchbook” or on her website – “Wildlife Art”

“Keeper of Colors”

The thing that sets Jean apart in my mind – apart from her obvious talent – is that she sounds so approachable in her posts on “Unfinished Sketchbook” on Substack.

“Shades of Light and Dark”

Jean is real. She describes ups and downs, feeling good or bad about a sketch, how her art changes in relationship to what’s going on in her life, how her art helps her through challenges.

“The Portrait of a Lady”

Right now, I think this one is my favorite, although that changes each time I scroll through her work. I love owls, and this pose is endearing. I want to touch him, although I would doubt he would allow it…

“Yes, I am Very Round”

Give yourself the gift of signing up for “Unfinished Sketchbook” on Substack, plus visiting her website. Click on the links provided for each for easy access.

Wonderful Watercolors

“Joyful Day, Water Over Mountain” – Marjorie Glick – outdoorpainter.com

“Our memories, the way we tend to experience them, are sort of fuzzy around the edges, like a watercolor that has bled into the past and is not totally clear.” ~ Lisa Joy

Steve Mitchell – Strathmoreartist.com

“Part of why I like watercolor is that mistakes are visible, and you can’t really repair much. It has to look easy. When it comes out, it looks easy, but to get to that point takes a lot of doing.” ~ Chris Raschka

“Path Conservatory Garden Central Park” – Beverly Brown – fineartamerica.com

“When I was nine, my great grandfather, a landscape painter, taught me to mix colors. With his strong hand surrounding my small one, he guided the brush until a calla lily appeared as if by magic on a page of textured watercolor paper.” ~ Susan Vreeland

“Imaginary Landscape” – Esperoart.com – Watercolor with Chris

“Being creative is my idea of heaven. I’m just incredibly fortunate that I can do it in artwork. Watercolor is what I started out with. What I love about watercolor is that a lot of happy accidents occur.” ~ Jane Seymour

Artsydee – Pinterest

“Because watercolor actually moves on the paper, it is the most active of all mediums, almost a performance art.” ~ Nita Engle

I Found Some!

I posted one of Andrew Simoson’s beautiful watercolors at the top of one of my posts lately, and mentioned that I would try to find more.

It was difficult, as I can’t find a website for his work anywhere. It seems to only be posted, one painting at a time, by J. E. Toney on Pinterest. I’ll show you here what I’ve been able to find so far.

Watercolor Tales

I found a wonderful shop on Etsy called, “Watercolor Tales.” The artist is Laura Winslow and I simply love her watercolors. Her compositions really speak to me and I love the texture she creates.
