Blue Monday – Watercolor Painting


Blue Monday is sponsored by Sally at Smiling Sally.

Today I’d likle to share another of the paintings displayed here at Oak Rise Cottage. I bought this from the artist, Judith Edson, at an Apple Festival over 12 years ago. The cost was $20, which I was happy to pay for the 15 inch by 15 inch piece.


I had it framed in a simple gilt wood frame to coordinate with other artwork in the room.


The painting is titled "Blue Whale". The design is accomplished with a few strokes of the brush.


For many years it hung in the living room but when I painted the kitchen a blue green in 2005, I moved it to the breakfast area. (Sorry about the glare from the flash) By the way, the color of the mat is not such a close match for the paint color; that is just how the photo makes it appear.

    Blue is such a serene color and I see this piece just fits well with all that is around it. Ahhh....
