    This is just stunning! Oh, this is how I want to be able to paint someday… We vacation at a fishing lake in Ontario, and this reminds me of that area. The lighting is so right and your colors… Like I said, this is what I aspire to.

  • Thank you so much Marlene.

    I can’t tell you how delightful your paintings are! In art school I tried to learn watercolor landscapes by trial and error, didn’t know it yet but I was doing fair impressionistic work, even while I was trying so hard to paint like this. None of the instructors did watercolor, but I got some good art direction regardless. Have moved on to the digital world as years go by, but can visit here and just enjoy!

  • thank you so much for the kind comment, Syd.
