I do art stuff, lots of art stuff. Watercolor, pen&ink, oils, photography, and exhibits. Plus, I have created, designed, written, and self-published an ArtStory book. Extra plus, I film, edit, and upload art videos to YouTube outlining my art journey
I have installed 18 artworks at the Parkville Library and is now on display until Aug 15th. Two of those 18 are not original but wanted to include them to add to the whimsical format. 1 of the 2, ‘Olympic Birdbath’© Craig L Haupt, watercolor, giclee print, original in private collection.
Maine & Miss Marble. When Miss Marble’s sister Joan arrived to keep her company, she brought along a close friend, Mac-Paul. I didn’t ask, but I suspect he may be from France. He seemed captivated with the stories told about Willow and set off to do some exploring on his own. © Craig L Haupt

The third of the three. This is the same Birch tree branch as the first but with more of the branch shown. I wanted to try moderating the image for a soft-focused look and altering the background color to be more complementary. © Craig L Haupt
This is the second photo of the Birch tree, tips of branches. Found this one taking a nap. © Craig L Haupt
Maine: The next 3 photos of the tips of Birch tree branches. An overcast semi-foggy morning, quiet stillness gracing the water and no reflections from any trees I was able to position the camera to get a solid color background from the pond. Colors altered a bit in PS © Craig L Haupt
