"Snowy Wishes"
"Snowy Wishes"
I painted this little watercolor "Snowy Wishes"recently. A friend taught me a watercolor technique for painting aspen trees years ago and I included a cheery snowman in this version. You start out with playing with quite a bit of masking tape and minimal drawing. Sometimes; Many times actually-it's quite healthy to just play with your paints. You will probably find that you can be freer, looser and just have more fun painting. This painting started as a demo in one of my watercolor classes and I wound up using it for my 2013 Christmas card. Prints and cards are available of "Snowy Wishes" through Fine Art America.
