Turtle Miniature Watercolor Painting

on
This is a new painting that I'm working on. 13 turtles on a log and reflections of them in the water. This piece is pretty intricate, but I thought that I should challenge myself. ;) I saw these turtles in Oklahoma. They all seemed to be competing for space on the log to sun themselves in the early afternoon sunlight - as you can see, some of them did not get the prime locations. I think that the title for this painting will be

This piece is pretty intricate, but I thought that I should challenge myself. ;) I saw these turtles in Oklahoma. They all were competing for space on the log to sun themselves in the warmth of the early afternoon sunlight – as you can see, some of them did not get the prime locations. I think that the title for this painting will be "Turtle Jam". Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist

Large Cougar Watercolor Painting

on

I was in an accident a while back, some of my blog visitors may have heard, it was an incident with an overly playful cougar about a year ago.  The event slowed me down a bit with my injuries and pulled muscles, but everything turned out fine (thankfully).  …am very cautious around cougars now. ;)

This is a painting in progress of the cougar that attacked me – the watercolor painting is 24×36.  Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist

Roseate Spoonbill Miniature Painting

This is a new miniature that I didn't realize I hadn't posted here on the blog yet. It's a painting of a Roseate Spoonbill preening. I really thought that I could paint in a lot of mood in this piece - it's what drew me to the subject. The sketch that I made for the painting is at the bottom of this post.

Snowy Egret Sketch

on
This is a sketch of a snowy egret that was fishing a little area between the boulders on the beach for a little lunch in the Daytona Beach/New Smyrna Beach area of Florida. Some of my friends put up with me and my sister chasing all of the shorebirds down the beach with cameras. :D

Hummingbird Miniature Watercolor Progress….

This is the progress on my little hummingbird miniature watercolor that I started on the other day. It's starting to take shape. I think it will turn out well.
