Very nice work Michelle. The big tree in front of your house is also beautiful. I have some little maple trees in my garden but I have to keep them little. I used them also for my gallery.
They are so nice in the autumn.

I like the shade, colors and the depth

JMPorter In reply to TukkerNL [2014-10-26 20:17:59 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! It's very interesting how it conveys that depth-I hope I can repeat this on demand, lol! It's a very new medium to me.
I've done some dabbling in gouache before, but this is going to be a challenge, I can tell already.

It really looks great! Well good luck and it's often more fun when it's a challenge

JMPorter In reply to TukkerNL [2014-10-26 20:28:47 +0000 UTC]

Well! It is "fun," and also frustrating! LOL! I'm used to being GOOD already [colored pencils] and now,
my drawing skills are RUSTY and y'know...Learning how watercolor works-UGH! LOL! But you're right. I'm a
stubborn person, and I do love a challenge. I'm floored at how much encouragement everyone is giving
me! ^-^ I did not expect this kind of response. So, thanks some more, Dennis! ^-^

JMPorter In reply to TheClumsyBookworm [2014-10-25 20:29:59 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much! It was an exercise. I'm so rusty, and watercolor has never been my medium. Hopefully I'll get better as time goes on.
