This week we have been given some beautiful soft spring colors. Last night Michelle and I were experimenting with color values. This morning, I decided to use the color challenge for practice in my sketch book. Started by taking the three soft colors to paint the lavender spray. Added value by painting several layers. This is what is interesting about wateracolor. It's about layers of paint. Now I will have reference when I want to do a painting on a card. TFL

Experimenting with color layering is a wonderful tool on this watercoloring journey. Your painting looks wonderful.

With layers of paint comes patience while the layers dry, unless you use a heat gun. A lovely grouping of flowers and foliage, Linda, and I can tell you were patient!

Linda, your art work is always a pleasure to admire, and I very much appreciate the little watercoloring tips you share in your descriptions. This painting is just lovely. You should frame it!
