transparent watercolour, 7x11" image
This was another class demo that I did. I decided to put salt into the background wash to see what would happen. I liked the idea, but the contrast was too great, so I glazed over it again (ultramarine blue) which toned it down. It kind of reminded me of raindrops, hence the title. It is currently at the Leighton Centre for their Annual Clothesline Sale on June 1st. If it doesn't sell there, I think I will add some rain drops to the blossoms to strengthen the link with the theme.
Your watercolors are beautiful. Petra
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with Petra, though I have to admit to a strong bias as your daughter :) I'd also add that their computer images pale in comparison to how stunning they are in real life! Good luck with the blogging, I'm looking forward to seeing what you're working on.
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog and think it is fantastic. Love daffodils. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful vibrant work...I came across your blog through Carol Marine's and wondered where in Alberta you work/teach? I live in Airdrie, just north of Calgary.
ReplyDeleteHi Veronica: Thanks for your kind comments. I teach in Calgary as part of Chinook Learning Services which is the adult ed arm of the Calgary Board of Education.
