What’s in My Art Studio?

 

OCTOBER 3, 2026

 

I am budgeting time during the last part of this year to finish some projects and focus on my own artwork for the books.

​

Cards, paintings and digital posters are part of that work. Some are already available on the website, with more coming as I finish the remaining pieces.

I still plan to finish one of the ballet dancer paintings this year, but I’ll move the others to 2027. The first original watercolour in the series is Ballet Slippers, now available as a printable fine-art card in the Digital Cards collection.

​

Most of my artwork is created in watercolour these days. I have discovered that the medium speaks to me a little more strongly than acrylic, although I still enjoy working in different styles. I continue to create small illustrations and occasionally accept commissions when the project and timing are right.

For the rest of this year, my focus will be on finishing my personal illustrations, developing new cards and building my collection of digital artwork.

​

We will see how it all comes together under the Dawn McNaught banner. For now, I am simply happy to have the time and space to return to my own art.

​

Please check back for digital artwork for your home, printable greeting and seasonal cards, and a few crafts you can print and enjoy for your own use.

My larger pieces will be shown locally, and I am also creating a place on the website where you will be able to view them. I am working on that now.

I’ll post a link here when it’s completed.

RED-Wing Black Bird Painting - YouTube

​

I occasionally film original watercolour painting studies for practice or simply on a whim and share the creative process on YouTube. This Red-winged Blackbird painting is one of those pieces. Inspired by Canadian birds and wetland wildlife, the original watercolour has now been converted into a printable 5" × 7" fine-art card.

 

A coordinating Red-winged Blackbird fine-art poster now available..
