Making Music New Orleans Style

18x24 watercolor on Canson Montval 140 lb cold press block with American Journey, DaVinci, and Daniel Smith paints. A step by step work in progress is being posted over on the group blog Art Colony if anyone would like to see how I start and finish a direct painting style watermedia.
