Watercolor Mixed Media Paintings of Creatures by Patricia Allingham Carlson

Observing the creatures of the earth is an honor we are lucky to enjoy. My paintings attempt to capture their splendor and personalities. The creatures of earth, both big and small, spring to life in these watercolors and collages. Attracted to the vibrant colors and textures of various animals such and koi, peacocks, and tigers, Carlson’s artwork captures not only the beauty of her subjects but also their personalities.
