I haven't been painting lately, but I did finish this piece of needlepoint and I think I (unintentionally) gave it the same look as my paintings. Lillian Connelly

Life comes at you fast! As I head out of town again, I realized that I never shared my painting from the Florida Watercolor Society Annual Convention and Tradeshow in Orlando. Thank you to Matthew Bird for the excellent instruction; I feel so fortunate to have been your workshop assistant, even if you didn't let me do much of anything. I had a great time with my artist friends from Pensacola area who took Kathleen Giles's workshop and introduced me to her.

Next year, the Convention will be in Bradenton. Join the fun!

The Watercolor Socirty of Alabama has a few spots left for the Laurie Humble 3 Day Workshop, Beyond Realism: Depth, Emotion & Concept in Watercolor in Mobile, Alabama
on October 2-4.

Take your watercolor painting to the next level in this 3-day immersive workshop with acclaimed artist Laurie Humble. Drawing from her best-selling book Watercolor Depth & Realism and her evocative Smoke and Mirrors series, Laurie will guide you through mastering depth and detail while moving past mere representation—into the realm of emotion, symbolism, and visual storytelling.

Through demonstrations, conceptual exploration, and personalized feedback, artists will create powerful, layered work that blends technical excellence with personal voice.

All levels welcome. Ideal for artists who are technically capable but want to find more meaning in their work; those seeking a bridge between skill and soul in watercolor. Students will work from their own reference photos (any subject) or those provided by Laurie. Handouts from Watercolor Depth & Realism will be provided to support technical aspects, and all students will be emailed a free digital copy (PDF) of Laurie’s book “How to See What Isn’t There”, A Practical Guide to Using Artistic License.

If you are interested, I have additional information I can send you.

🎨 Featured Artist of the Week: Nancy Murphree Davis 🎨

Nancy is a professional watercolor artist whose passion shines through every brushstroke. Originally from Troy, Alabama, she discovered her creative spark early — winning Best of Show in a statewide art competition back in sixth grade! That early win set her on a lifelong artistic journey.

After earning her BFA from Auburn University, Nancy’s path took her all over the country — from California and the Florida Keys to New Mexico, Texas, North Dakota, and Northern Virginia. Since 2018, she’s made her home right here in Pensacola, Florida.

Her work is vibrant and expressive. While she’s received numerous awards and honors across the Southeast, what makes her art truly special is the way it connects with people. Nancy’s paintings are part of private collections across the U.S. and abroad, and even in the permanent collection of Arlington County, Virginia.

Here in Pensacola, you can find Nancy (and her beautiful work!) at Quayside Art Gallery, where she’s an active member helping to build community through art. She also serves as Exhibition Director for the Florida Watercolor Society, and is a proud member of several watercolor groups throughout the region.

First full day of Pensacola Plein Air Paint-Out and I decided to paint Jerry's Drive In. Jerry's claims to be the Pensacola's oldest restaurant and home of the original bacon cheeseburger. It was established in 1939. It will be in my 2026 calendar.

Come see everyone's paintings this weekend at Quayside Gallery!
