But I understand your struggle with watercolor. It can be a demanding medium requiring time and patience. I'm curious what paper you used. Getting a watercolor to work out can have to do with the quality of the paper, control of the amount of water in the paint and on the paper, and the size of the brush you're using.Jana Bouchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18019523068496828367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19077822.post-1153983804295092892006-07-27T03:03:00.000-04:002006-07-27T03:03:00.000-04:00Very impressionistic and quite beautiful Lin.

It reminds me of some of Karen Winters paintings but with deeper colors.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10559327646403336407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19077822.post-1153929765223877242006-07-26T12:02:00.000-04:002006-07-26T12:02:00.000-04:00We are another lover of azaleas.

I think you did pretty good. <BR/>You mentioned "blot". What is that? A new term for partial lifting?Donnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588164250528371345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19077822.post-1153924321246542062006-07-26T10:32:00.000-04:002006-07-26T10:32:00.000-04:00I love azalea's and that is just how they look--al...I love azalea's and that is just how they look--all color mixed in with green.
