Did an additional printing of this woodblock. It's inspired by the old pianos some cities put outside in various places for people to play. "The Castoff Piano", 7x7", woodblock w/watercolor. For more of my artwork: www.brianmccormik.artpan.com

I like to paint flowers in mid-winter. Here's a new watercolor: "July Prairie", around 10x20 inches. I have some rural property where I'm trying to restore native prairie plants. This painting is based on a photo I took last July.

Our snow is all gone...I kind of miss it. Here's a snow scene, a watercolor of mine that is still available at Outside the Lines, an art gallery with a shop in Galena, IL and one in Dubuque, IA. It's called "Crow" and is around 12x21 inches.
