Day Two and Three of Thirty

DAY TWO   Cheers watercolor on FABRIANO Artistico paper 12,5 x 18cm/ 5" x 7" DAY THREE   Summer Daisy watercolor on FABRIANO Artistico paper 12,5 x 18cm/ 5" x 7" I had to stay up late to paint both of these paintings. I hope to be on a better schedule next week. I found a cork, remnants from our New Year's Eve party while cleaning up. I thought it funny that  my initials are on it. I love the texture of the cork and originally had  set out to paint only with sepia but ended up adding other colors. The daisy is from a reference photo file. I take many photos at my inlaws' beautiful garden especially during the summer months with their garden is at its peak. I love the play of light against the dark of this composition. On a great note, today I received an e-mail from Ken Bromley Art supplies. Earlier in December I volunteered to test their website. They awarded me £50 for helping, awesome gift! I can't wait to buy much
