Kerrville Antiques

22x15 watercolor on Winsor Newton 140 lb cold press paper done awhile ago from an old antique store between Ingram and Kerrville, TX.  I used to take off a week each summer to the hill country and study with Ken Hosmer who taught me the secrets of watercolor at their arts foundation.  There are so many unique places to see and photograph and this stone house was begging to be painted.
