This is the second of two entered into the plein air competition....altho it actually is not complete, but I ran out of time and someone told me it was complete enough to put a frame on it...so I did! 11" x 15" Arches 400lb rough paper
Outverystanding palette of watercolors : lovely and warm tones, harmonious composition and splendid focus on lighting ; all these qualities have successfully the mood to the front !
Its amazing how you controlled watercolor...BEAUTIFUL work Aimee
Artist Reply: That's the thing about this particular painting...I didn't try to control it. I had no time to control it! I only had 5 hrs to git-r-dun! So I just slapped paint down and hoped for the best...I wasn't even going to submit it!
To you it may be incomplete but to me its absolutely perfect:o)) Everything about it is superb - the light, the colours, the composition - how the dappled shade leads you in and that red bloom guides you towards the front door....Best of luck with the show - you deserve lots of success :o))
Artist Reply: Thank you Jacki....I found out this afternoon I got 3rd place for Mary Ellen's Boudoir. Not bad for a first go at this sort of thang!
