Jenny, I really love this one. I am partial to the human figure, and the technique is perfect. I am struggling with painting now . . . I really have no idea what I'm doing, I just get some water, paint, and make a mess. Sometimes...it works! It is scary because I can work on a piece and in just a short period of time completely blow it (I feel...) by either overworking, too wet, not enough paint...who knows! I love how you show the steps for the masking, and I think I shall try a more controlled approach to a future piece! Your other watercolor site, the girl sitting? Really, really perfect. Nice composition, so more much than just an image...emotion, light . . . really nice. Finally, I sit and take the time to look at some of the sites that have sent me such kind words…and WOW.

I am so honored by your wanting to paint my photo. I have never heard of the technique that you mentioned and it was very interesting how you achieved your final image. Fantastic work!
