"A Winters Day" By Debra Tritt Kreiger

"A Winters Day"
10"x14" watercolor on 140lb arches paper

I painted this painting from a scene right outside my studio window. It was one of those cold dreary snowy days and this bright little fellow came to visit. It is no wonder people just love the warm colorful sight of a cardinal in winter. Hoping you all have a very happy and peaceful holiday season.

"Letort Rushing" By Debra Tritt Kreiger





"Letort Rushing" 5.5"x8.5" on 140lb paper
This was painted plein air looking down on the rushing water of the Letort waterfall as it prepares to meet the Conodoguinet Creek. What a beautiful November day we had. Every plein air painting is a challenge for me . I liked all the activity going on and the calm pool near the rocks. I think I captured the rush!

"Pepper" By Debra Tritt Kreiger



"Pepper" Watercolor 5"x3.5" on 300lb Arches Paper

This is a mini. I love to do these little paintings in between the larger ones. Gives me a little practice in painting a little quicker. I also wanted to try the 300lb paper which I like very much. On the original the colors are a little deeper. I used the layers of lettuce to give a different texture into the mix and to incorporate the complimentary color scheme.

Work In Progress....




This is my current project. I am painting him with watercolors on 140lb Arches paper. He is a resident of the Kings Gap State Park pond. I just think he is gorgeous! What is creating a lot of textures and interest is the colors of the dying lily pad and the murky water. A lot of work to do yet, but progressing nicely.

" Amity Hall Boat Launch" By Debra Tritt Kreiger

"Amity Hall Boat Launch" 9"x12" Watercolor on 140lb Arches Paper

This is another plein air painting painted from the boat launch off the Amity Hall exit. The morning was bright and beautiful but windy. The clouds moved in quickly and changed everything. I tried to capture the puffy clouds and the brisk wind and bright sunshine.
I thought it appropriate to paint the huge American flag whipping in the wind, but standing proud.
