Thank you, I like the bright colors in this too! I normally shy away from using color so vivid, but I think I'm going to do more bright stuff in the future.

Not a problem. This really is very beautiful. I love works done in water color. I need to play w/ that medium more.

That sounds like a GREAT idea. Any suggestions on what I should draw?

Hmmm, mermaids and faeries are always fun, and skies are great practice. Anything with billowy fabrics are great to help you practice shading, but as you can see from my paintings it can be addictive!

Thanks! That blue/rusty orange is one of my absolute favorite color combinations, I love using it because it's so vivid. I used Winsor & Newton watercolors and Arches Watercolor paper.

ah watercolors! I wasnt sure, it is so crisp it looks like color pencil. Excellent job. By the way, I'm wearing a rust colored peasant skirt and turquise blue tank top....
