Thank you so much for your encouraging words!! And I know your watercolor work is probably as amazing as your other work. I must say, watercolors and gouache together seem to be the only way for me to make mine do what I need them to do. I am in AWE of true watercolorists, especially those who master light. I cna't do that, truly! And thank you..finally my arm is not a big blob of a mess..thank goodness for Benadryl! Take good care!Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703768956294366254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-26070780096109818612018-06-04T15:32:29.060-07:002018-06-04T15:32:29.060-07:00Linda, it's a treat to see you here, and likew...Linda, it's a treat to see you here, and likewise to seeing yours!

And I love the beginning drawings just as much as the finished color versions. These are really stunning pages. That robin! That key! You know, I tried my hand at watercolors last month, and I learned that I absolutely do not have the patience to do it properly. So much bleeding.... So I am in such awe of your work. (Yikes, shingles! Nooooooo. Hope the booster is better. )Bella Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139728758198482234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8461198241914317094.post-20056465729801352812018-06-04T12:06:36.592-07:002018-06-04T12:06:36.592-07:00I always love seeing your work.
