All of our watercolor paintings are original, painted here in our studio by Joanne C. Resch. We mat and frame them ourselves. Quality materials are used throughout the process. Each framed painting comes to you ready-to-hang. Unframed, matted paintings are designed to fit into standard size frames. When you buy a painting from us, it's original and unique through and through. If you have something you'd like painted, contact us. We are open to endless possibilities.

Each card has the image printed on the front with a blank interior for your own message. The title of the work, year it was painted,and artist name is printed on the back. Each notecard is sold for $4.00, comes with an envelop and is packaged in an acetate sleeve.

A Word From The Artist:
"Your creative spirit is worth the discovery! It’s not about " the right way" or what "it should look like"….it’s about taking the time to see and experience the simple wonder that surrounds you and allowing that spirit to guide your expression….over an over and over again. Much of watercolor painting is learned by doing, trying, experimenting, and not being afraid of making "mistakes". So-called "mistakes" in watercolor only shed new light and guide you in another direction as you work, therefore nourishing the development of your own style. In watercolor painting IT’S OKAY TO LET YOURSELF GO in order to gain control as you journey with this medium. Free yourself of pre-conceived notions with regard to your level of skill/talent/knowledge and begin, either for the first time or once again…gentle yet creatively motivated instruction is here to encourage and fuel your own creative spirit!" ~ Joanne C. Resch
Fee: $15 for one hour. $30 for two hours $40 for three hours.
A detailed supply list is available upon request. In order to schedule lessons, contact Joanne via email. If you prefer call her at 518-993-3022 or 800-677-8941.
