"Kinsley" by Terry Honstead

This 10" x 15" watercolor is done, I think.  As usual, I am never quite sure when I first finish and will have to look at it for a few days to be sure.  This is my granddaughter.  She is almost a year now, and her mom says, she prefers the toilet paper to roll from the under side!  If you would like to see more of my paintings, you can go to:  terry-honstead.artistwebsites.com or email me at:  honstead@paulbunyan.net.

Beach Combing by Terry Honstead

I wanted to do this painting of my grandson because my mind has been on our upcoming trip to FL.  I can hardly wait and this painting represents everything good about being at the beach!  It is a 5 x 7 and I plan on entering it in the Artists of MN Spring Show for the mini.  If you are interested in this or any of my work you can see more at http://terry-honstead.artistwebsites.com/ or email me at:honstead@paulbunyan.net.

"TV 2011" by Terry Honstead

This portrait of my grandson was done in a Karlyn Holman workshop that I was at for a week.  I went with 6 other artists from the Bemidji area and we had a wonderful time.  Stayed right on the shores of Lake Superior.  It was beautiful and we painted for at least 12 hours a day!  Ate, painted, and slept and then did it all over again!  It was great!  This portrait was my favorite part of the workshop, but then I love to do portraits.  If anyone is interested in having me do a portrait for them, you may email me at honstead@paulbunyan.net.

In The Beginning

I am new to this site and I thought I would post this painting as my introduction to myself.  "In the Beginning" ia a painting that I did recently as a tribute to my daughter-in-law and new granddaughter because of all the trauma  they went through before and after birth. I was so very privilaged to be a part of the whole experience!   "In The Beginning" is a 12 x 16 watercolor on 300 lb Arches paper.  Anyone interested in purchasing it can email me at honstead@paulbunyan.net
