I was asked by an old friend to show her how I paint. Since she can't watch me do the actual brushstrokes, I decided to photograph a painting in its various stages of development and post them for her to see how I do what I do.
Any readers who know how to paint with watercolors for real, please tell me what I could do to improve. As always, I'm just painting "by ear," and I'd love to have some informed advice.
So here is how Joyce and her horse got to be painted:

I think this might be my favorite yet! Her eyes and face are so accurate! Is this Joyce M., by the way??
Thank you!! I think it's my favorite as well, with a close second the one of Jon and Rachel... Yes, it is Joyce M.
I am amazed at how you can create that. What talent you have!
Anne, I am absolutely amazed at your natural talent. I, too, was happy to see you have some new pictures on your blog!
Thank you Aunt Nan! So happy you come to look!
