This one is called: "Bunch of Blueberries". It's a 12" x 18" watercolor painting. I had a lot of fun painting this one. I was looking at my other blueberries and got hungry. These were in the fridge and fell out of the basket onto the table. They bounced all over the place and left behind lots of juice! When you see them in person, the blueberries seem to "bounce" on the page...hence the name. Aren't I original?

About Me
- Mary-Anna Welch
- Beavercreek, Ohio, United States
- Mary-Anna Welch is an artist from Beavercreek, Ohio. Upon receiving her BFA and MA from the University of Illinois in Art Education, she shared her love of art in the private and public school systems for over 10 years. After experimenting with several different mediums, she has rediscovered her passion for painting and has settled on watercolor as her main focus. Her work in watercolors has evolved from the very abstract to a more graphic, non-traditional interpretation of her subject. She has incorporated her painting techniques that she used in oil to blend color on the canvas and translated these in her watercolor painting. This results in a blend of traditional colors and images with contemporary styles and forms. When asked about her subject matter, Mary-Anna responds, “I have a black thumb and can not grow anything but weeds. By painting my garden I will always have a rainbow of colors to enjoy no matter what season it is.” Mary-Anna continues to share her love of art by teaching art classes in her studio and at the local art center. You can find her busy painting in her studio or out at gathering ideas in a nearby garden.

Bunch of Blueberries
I just realized that I haven't posted any of my latest paintings. Well, in reality I couldn't. I didn't have any images of them yet. Fortunately for me I found a wonderful guy here in Dayton that is able to scan them in for me. Here is one of my newest ones:

Blueberries
Original Watercolor Painting
8" x 10"
The inspiration for this image came from the day I bought some blueberries from the store. As I was washing them, these 3 spilled out of the bowl and landed on the counter. I had a lot of fun enlarging them and painting the various colors that showed up when the sunlight was hitting them.
