Still Life Floral Sketch "Peonies" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

"Peonies" is a pencil and watercolor still life that is inspired by one of my favorite flowers! I don't have the flower growing in my garden but was the recipient of a bouquet of peonies out of my friend, Becky's garden! One must work fast because these little beauties are not long lasting after cut! I prefer the delicate pink blooms!

Italian Cityscape,Italian Landscape Watercolor Landscape Painting "Montalcino" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

                                

 Montalcino, Italy is a small city whose ancestors stubbornly resisted the Germans during World War II. The regions farmers made wine for centuries.

Contemporary Abstract Expressionism Painting "Two Thirty A.M." by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter


FRESH OFF THE EASEL


Once in a while I will awake in the middle of the night with an idea for a painting! As I lay there, I plan the feeling I hope to convey to the viewer! "Two Thirty AM" is the name of this large acrylic abstract on gallery wrapped canvas. It was a pleasure working on this piece as I had just completed a few weeks of small paintings in which there was quite a bit of detail. I worked all night into the next day on the first layer of the painting, completing it the next week. "Two Thirty AM" can be rotated in either direction giving the viewer additional moods of the same work! I plan more of these works so I may be losing some sleep!

Belgium Landscape, Belgium Cityscape Art,Figurative Watercolor "A Stroll Along the Groeneri" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Walking alongside the canals in Brugge, Belgium is a delightful excursion. Market Square is where you will find the famous chocolates, exquisite laces, and woven tapestries for sale. Lunch around Market Square is well worth taking in especially if you happen to be seated by the window looking out on the awesome architectural sites. I have always been a sucker for cobblestone streets; maybe it is my country roots! A Stroll Along the Groeneri is a watercolor painting of tourists and Brugge citizens enjoying a stroll beside the canal, while tourists row by in the little boats with famous Belgian chocolates in their packages.!

Beach House Georgia Coastal Cottage Painting "Tybee Island Cottage" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter


This new series of architectural oil paintings of small cottages has transported me back to my old neighborhood in the mountains of North Carolina! "Tybee Island Cottage II" is painted from subject matter a five minute walk from the beaches near Savannah, Georgia. Although the typography is so different on the coast than in the mountains, the building styles share the same characteristics. There is almost always a porch for sittin and sometimes spittin! My grandfather dipped snuff while sitting in his rocker on the front porch of their home in the North Carolina mountains! I would swing on the porch swing and listen to the gossip!

Italian Cityscape Art, Cafe' Art, Piazza,Watercolor Landscape "The Siena Experience" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Siena,Italy is surrounded by wine yards and olive groves, is spread out over three hills in the center of Tuscany.Its picturesque houses and small streets wind up to the charming Piazza del Campo. Restaurant, Osteria Le Logge, formerly an old phamacia is the setting for this watercolor painting. Dining tables are set up outside the entry walls of the stone structure and sophisticated waiters and waitresses relay the fare. The vision of a delectable dessert is embedding in my memory; a puff pastry with whipped cream and custard! Somehow, food never tastes as good indoors as it does in the open air, don't you agree!!

Original Georgia Landscape Oil Painting "Blue Heron Nature Preserve" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

The idea for "Blue Heron Nature Preserve" , a small oil landscape painting of on canvas came from a plein air outing this summer. Blue Heron Nature Preserve is tucked back in a wooded area on the way to Buckhead, an area outside the city of Atlanta, Georgia. While in this beautiful location, I had focused my attention on the colors in the water's reflections! After getting the basic shapes down while there, the painting was completed here in my studio. I feel that I captured the mood of the scene accurately!

Original Watercolor Architectural Cityscape Painting "Dining In Calcatta" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Calcatta, Italy, is little known to most tourists as an ancient town built on volcanic cliffs in the 1500's. Calcatta was once condemned by the Italian government in the 1930's but is now considered as one of the grooviest towns in the area surrounding Rome. After being told that Calcatta existed, my husband and 4 friends hired a driver out of Rome, Italy to drive us to this jewel of a place high above the trees! To the delight of our ears, as we entered the town through a stairway of masonry of stone, we heard "Ave Maria", being sung by an Italian gentleman in the tiny church there! Dining in Calcatta ,a watercolor, is a glimpse of such a fascinating place!

House Sketch, Architectural Sketch,Atlanta Architecture "Tybee Island Cottage" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Cottages are one of my favorite subjects to draw.! I learned how to create in a smaller home in the mountains of North Carolina. Cottages have charm and are cozy to live in! "Tybee Island Cottage" is a seaside painting of a cottage located on Tybee Island/ Fort Screven area of the Savannah, Georgia coast. My husband grew up in this coastal area of Georgia, hence I have spent quite a bit of time there also. A commonality among seaside cottages is their insistence on having a porch! Isn't it great that there are still areas of the country where conversation is enjoyed while porch sitting! With a modest investment of a mat and frame, "Tybee Island Cottage" would ad a charming touch to your home!
