Rabbit in the Moss, Sepia watercolor on board, 5in x 7in, ©Rebecca Latham I’m frequently visited by several little rabbits, most often in the mornings. It lights up my day a bit to see a little furry visitors as I grab a cup of coffee and peek out the window […] Read more »
Silence – Barred Owl, 8in x 10in, watercolor on board, ©Rebecca Latham This is a recent painting of a barred owl I completed. It has a cooler background that I thought contrasted nicely with the warm golden browns of the feathers and yellow tones in it’s beak. I’ve included both […] Read more »
A little bit larger than I often work… this piece is about 11in x 14in (sepia watercolor on board at this point, work in progress). This is a rather involved painting with all of the detail in the animals themselves as well as an ocean of grass surrounding them. ..so […] Read more »
Evening in Indigo – Trumpeter Swan, 5.5in x 5.5in, watercolor on board, ©Rebecca Latham This is a recent painting of a trumpeter swan. I loved working in this color scheme along with the misty aspects of it. It had a calming feel to it throughout the process and seemed to […] Read more »

A recent painting of a playful litter of coyote puppies. They thoroughly enjoyed chasing each other until they were fully exhausted. I think I may have had as much fun, just watching them, as they seemed to be having in their playful romps. I loved the energy, textures involved […] Read more »
This is my bobcat kitten painting, recently completed. I loved his active stance…he was in pursuit of something that caught his eye, perched on a rock ready to pounce. I was also drawn to the bold glow of color to glaze in throughout the painting. This piece will be included with my […] Read more »
This is a detail photograph of a new white wolf I am working on – shown in the sepia stage of the painting. I am really looking forward to working in the porous and pitted rock texture as well as moving into the color phase of bringing up the backlighting […] Read more »
