“Watercolor Conch Shell”
I love to study the shapes and colors within each unique shell. Here, I exaggerated the color undertones of the shells to create a striking watercolor still life.

Pine cones are perfect. When you think of the most beautiful elements in nature, maybe a pine cone doesn't come to mind, but to me, they are as perfect as a seashell, and complex as a rose and its petals. I love pine cones for holiday art and sprucing up a home with a wintry "floral" look. The original painting was created on watercolor paper with gouache, which is an opaque watercolor paint.

Had to share... When I delivered this commission, my 10 year old insisted on coming along and wanted to wear her Main Street Pub hoodie too.😊🎨🏠💚
Today is the last day to order prints on my website and receive yours by Christmas!🎁🎨
www.purplehayesgallery.com
I ordered myself an early Christmas gift...a cell phone case of my " Good Morning Glories"💠 watercolor! Morning Glories are special to me because they were my grandmother's favorite flower. Now a vine grows at my front door every summer and it never fails to remind me of her. In addition to standard prints, my website allows printing on a variety of materials...metal, canvas, acrylic, tote bags, mugs, t-shirts, and cell phone cases ( Samsung Galaxy & iPhone).
These are unique gift ideas and so much better than just ordering from Amazon ( I mean, I do love Amazon, but supporting small biz is the best, right!?) 😊 Pick an image that you connect with- a friend just ordered my "Positively Positano" cell phone case to remind her of her recent cruise to Italy. 🇮🇹🥂🎄🎁
Cheers to my "little" brother's birthday! He introduced me to the Aperol Spritz and encouraged me and helped me in planning our summer trip to Italy, where we drank many of these!🥂 Thanks Josh Taylor for being such a great brother and friend. ❤️
This is the watercolor greeting card I sent him. 😊
Heads up! If you’ve got your eye on my artwork as a gift for the holidays, please place your order ASAP to receive it in time for Christmas!
My work is produced, packaged, and shipped through a white-glove process that takes some extra time at this time of year.
In order to receive your order in time for Christmas, I recommend placing it by the end of the day tomorrow (Dec 5).
👉BONUS! Use code ARTGIFT when placing your order to get 20% off.

What an absolute blast in The Barrel Room at The Winery at Bull Run! Loved watching this full house create their own versions of " Farm Fresh Christmas Tree." Not pictured, but we also had a silver truck, pink truck, and blue truck too! Special thanks to my elves today, Savannah, Madi, Dani, & Danielle for making everything run smoothly. And big thanks to The Winery at Bull Run staff for creating a perfect atmosphere for a fun and festive holiday event. Cheers!🎨🛻🎄🥂🍷

Happy Friday and Cheers to the weekend!
👋 “Racing to the Rhythm”
This is possibly my favorite work of abstract art I have ever created. I created this in a stream of consciousness, using a drip and tilt technique with acrylic on canvas. Primary colors, black, white, and gold metallic paint were used. When completed, I polled my followers to ask what they saw in this abstract scene. The most popular answers were: bicyclists and a rock band. Thus, the title, "Racing to the Rhythm," was born. Available as prints - I personally printed this one on metal and gifted it to several friends who completed a 50-mile fundraiser bike ride with me.

“Floral Vibe”
I love the use of free-flowing lines and earthy color to create floral abstract art. This watercolor piece gives a modern edge to the simplicity of floral art.

A favorite
Haunting Beauty was a watercolor created with the contrast of tight lines of a watercolor pen, with heavy use of water on the page, allowing the black watercolor to reveal its blue base color. I love the hauntingly beautiful look and composition of this piece.

It's delivery day! I woke up excited this morning and decided to stop by The Main Street Pub/ Clifton General Store to do a quick photo shoot with my little watercolor before I deliver it to my customer this afternoon. What I love about this piece is that I painted it to the edge of 9 x 12" cold press paper, but I kept the primary focus within an 8 x 10" space. This provides the customer with 2 size options for matting and framing. Such a pleasure to get to paint one of my favorite places, and just one of the many reasons I'm so very thankful this Thanksgiving. 💚🎨🏠

Oh I am so exhausted, but also so grateful that my 🎨new studio🎨 is officially up and running! On Friday, I spent the day painting the walls, and then Saturday was all about running the kids around to their activities. Today, my hubby helped me rearrange the furniture, move 75% of my materials into the space, put down a new rug, & set up my easel. My kids came by to check out the new digs and have breakfast at the amazing French bakery just steps away, Motier. Highly recommend! I finished the afternoon with doing some detail work on the watercolor commission of the Main Street Pub/ Clifton General Store. 99% finished and what an appropriate 1st painting to work on in the new studio.😊 Meanwhile, I'm working on the contract for another Paint & Sip event in December at a Local Brewery! Stay tuned for another opportunity to paint with me and drink some local brew! 🎨🍻🍺 Thank you all for your support and good wishes! It really does mean the world to me, especially when the self doubt creeps in. Thank you!❤️🎨
