FS454 = Lisa = Shoe Girl. Lisa is very active here on SCS and has a beautiful and full gallery to prove it. Right now, she is one of the mainstays of the HYCCT Team. I chose this card of hers mainly for its layout and subject matter since I wanted to combine it with the HYCCT for today.
HYCCT1518 = being inspired by one of The Masters. I chose my favorite American watercolorist, John Singer Sargent. I adore his work. He is known for many of his exceptional oil portraits, including "Madame X", but it is his watercolors that really put me in awe. Here is a VERY SIMPLE watercolor sketch of his. I wouldn't even attempt one of his finished watercolor paintings.

Again, Sallie! You prove you are an artist. It is because of your paintings that I took a chance today to see if I could actually paint something besides clouds. And believe me it was a chance. Your bird is just beautiful! Thanks for all the inspiration!

Oh my goodness what a treat to see this card show up as the CASed card for the WTUI challenge. I was blown away at your amazing recreation from my CAS card and all your wonderful water coloring and to see this card show up as the CASed card brought me back to this stunning card again that was also in my favorites. Thank you for sharing your amazing cards to inspire others.
