The University

Welcome to University Watercolors!

While viewing my watercolor paintings you will find that successfully combining creativity with accuracy has given them a unique look. Washes of bold color create vibrant atmospheres while the landmarks are painted with detailed precision.  This expression of warmth and accuracy results in paintings that are captivating and genuine.

University Watercolors - expressing the passion and beauty of life.

Thanks for visiting!
