Magnolia Watercolor Batik by Deborah Boyet Artist

Southern Beauty III
Watercolor Batik 14x18
Original $300
Open Edition Prints $20
Original or Open Edition
I love to paint watercolor batiks! They are magical, soft, yet they have an unsurpassed vibrance, due to the translucent rice paper. And the rice paper is so attractive with the fibers that absorb more of the color.

The beautiful white blooms of the magnolia are long gone, but there is one more attractive gift they leave behind. The buds are fibrous, and produce brilliant red seeds when they burst open, giving the magnolia exceptional beauty into the fall.

I hope you enjoy this rare view of a magnolia, and as always enjoy your journey my friend.

Camellia Oil Painting by Deborah Boyet Artist

Kalmia Gardens II
Oil 12 x 12 x 1.5
Original $225
Giclee' $75
Another in my series of Camellias...if you haven't guessed by now, I really love these flowers. I look forward to them every winter. They are the only thing blooming, and here in the South, they are everywhere! This piece has won several top awards. The reds are lovely, and the greens of the leaves are inviting, exquisite, and continue onto the sides of the painting.

Orchid Painting by Deborah Boyet Artist

Wild Orchids I

Original 22x30 Watercolor on Paper

Giclee' 12x16 (edition size 150)

Original and Giclee'

I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the Marie Selby Botanical Garden in Sarasota Florida. What a beautiful place! There were hundreds of orchids in bloom and I was overwhelmed by their beauty. I love to paint white flowers as they reflect the colors that surround them, and the translucent petals have wonderful shadows. I hope you enjoy them, and thanks for stopping by!
