"Santa Fe Door: Cobalt" by Karla Nolan, watercolor and ink painting, matted to 8"x10"







Santa Fe, New Mexico, is an extraordinary town.  It is so old, one of the very first towns in North America, long before it became the United States.  Most living structures are adobe and Canyon Road is probably the most famous road due to the large amount of art galleries located on it.  Some of the houses have  amazing doors so I decided to devote some watercolor and ink time to them.  Here is my first door -- a bright blue cobalt wooden arch of a door.  I've painted five more so far, so get ready for an occasional post to entice you to visit wondrous Santa Fe.  

"Santa Fe Door: Cobalt", watercolor and ink painting, approximately 3.5"x4.5" image in off-white mat to fit 8"x10" frame, $100 includes s/h in continental U.S., click Paypal button on my blogspot listed below or write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information

Thanks for viewing my art!  Greetings from Fort Collins, Colorado

Cobalt Blue by Pamela Blaies

I love this little cobalt blue bud vase. It is so deep blue, that it almost looks black unless I put it on something white. Then the blue really comes out as the white gleams through and reflects back onto the glass. Pairing it with lemons is the perfect complement.
