Whats on the easel - Work in progress













This is one in a series of three that I am working on. I struggling with these babies because I read an article about irredescent grays prior to starting. I even whipped out a sheet on watercolor paper and did all the color combinations that was listed in the magazine. I used those formulars in my paintings and I am getting mud! So wrong time to try something. But what keeps coming in to my head...is a quote from my friend Maurice's blog...If all you do is what you do - than all you'll have is what you got! So in my attemp to grow as an artist and get out of my comfort join - I am stuck - just having these babies sit on my easel.

Yellow Rose 5"x7" Watercolor • March 12, 2008


My goal in watercolor is to catch the interesting cast shadow that any objects creates and have it look realistic.
