This watercolor study was based on a photograph of my husband while on patrol in Afghanistan. Him looking out the window on 'high alert' provoked an amazing expression I tried to capture.
Wonderful compositin and colors! Great detail in a difficult (for me andyway!) medium.
Artist Reply: Hi, Trish! Wow--what a compliment! :) I find watercolor incredibly difficult--ALWAYS! :) Maybe because you have to paint 'backwards' (from light to dark)? A great challange! Hope your day goes great! -Kerra
