Description I painted this a while ago before my digital obsession took hold.
Just found it lurking in a file covered in cobwebs
Pure watercolour on stretched 90lb Bockingford. I always paint strong colours, I never got the hang of the beautiful soft watercolour washes that I admire.

Fond regards to you all

Pat

Wow, moonmomma, I didn't know you could paint! This is really awesome! I really adore all the reflections in the metal, especially in the closest pot.
Do you still paint? This one is really nice, thanks for posting it for us to see!

Wow, I had no clue you did traditional.... Well, just another reason to admire you! This is absolutely stunning. And being it that I absoluetly suck at watercolor, I have only the utmost respect for a persons mastery of it, and you have utterly conquered it! yeah, I like the strong colors you use and the level of detail is amazing, especially for watercolor.

A miraculous piece! You kept this stacked away somewhere..a crime... it should be in a frame and hanging on a wall somewhere! Lovely colours and composition and I love the glass effects...most difficult to do with watercolours...I think

I actually prefer more saturated watercolors. has amazing watercolor techniques that combine the use of washes and saturated color(I just bought her seriously awesome art book). This is really impressive. I think you should do more traditional stuff...after all, I think there is something to be said for getting paint under your nails once in awhile
