Countryside

Countryside

A few views from a much larger watercolor of

the countryside around where I live.

This is a stream that runs by my favorite

rock area. This was painted this past Autumn

when all the grass started turning a wonderful

indian yellow.

Pocathontas

Pocathontas

This little princess looks so regal in her headband

and beads.

My play on words of course comes from Pocahontas,

later known as Rebecca Rolfe.
She was the daughter of a Virginian Indian Chief named

Wahunsunacawh. He was better known as the Emperor

Pohatan who was the head of a tributary tribal nation in

the Tidewater region of Virginia. These tribes made up

what is known as the Powhatan Chiefdom and spoke the

language of the Algonquian family.

Pocahontas is said to have saved the life of colonist,

John Smith from being executed by a group of

Powhatan hunters. You can read more about

Pocahontas in this article.

This is my royal entry to the Stampsmith and

Gingersnap Creations as well as Dezina World

themes for this week.

Spring

Spring has sprung again.

The sun is shining so brightly this morning.

I am busy getting ready for the Easter Art Markets.

Just a few of my cards using dried flowers and

watercolor painted paper.

I will also post this over at Wednesday Stamper.
