Duck Decoys

Duck Decoys
One day while out antiquing, I walked into a very dark, old barn filled with all sorts of interesting items. These duck decoys sat on a ledge by a window. The sun was bright and warm and beyond the barn was a barnyard with chickens. The contrast of the dark inside and the bright outside caught my eye and I snapped several photos for future paintings.

The Old Timer

The Old Timer
Another place I am drawn to is junkyards. I love to see old rusty machinery. The structure and textures fascinate me. I am sure this old car was a prized possession in its day. Now it a sat in the scrapyard with other broken, rusty relics.

Cows Two Original Watercolors by Donna Berk Barlup

"Red Cow"
!0.5" x 14.5"
An Original Watercolor on Archival Paper

"A Whole Lot of Bull"
10." x 14.5"
An Original Watercolor on Archival Paper

I guess I am going through some kind of cow fetish!  The longhorns are on the road between my house and my son's house.  I pass them often and stop to photograph them  They are magnificent.  I liked the color of the other cow, almost red.


Both paintings are available for sale.  Please contact me if you are interested.

Zinnias and Butterflies An Original Watercolor by Donna Berk Barlup 30"x8"

Zinnias and Butterflies

An Original Watercolor by Donna Berk Barlup

30"x8"

Think Spring and Summer!  Zinnias are one of my favorites because a few seeds sprinkled here and there add so much color.  And the butterflies love them.  
I had an unusual size piece of watercolor paper left over from another painting.  Not being one to waste anything, especially art supplies. I looked through many photos and put some things together and came up with this striking composition.
