What I find the most difficult (and anxiety-provoking) about watercolor is the finality in each meeting of brush with paper. Once the color is down it is there to stay. Of course, doing a few watercolor pieces before returning to acrylic seems to encourage much greater economy of brushwork. So periodically switching media does have benefits!Atul Pandehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198133338169231601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422938401784126072.post-18677934794578079462009-01-03T13:09:00.000-05:002009-01-03T13:09:00.000-05:00Atul, Great job on this painting.

I'm not surprised someone from Canada wants a snow scene, we all like things that are familiar and take us to places we've already been.Jan Blencowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12436446226095902175noreply@blogger.com
