Sunny New Mexico Day

9x12 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done over last weekend while in New Mexico.  The red tile roof of the house caught my eye; temp was 91 degrees and the sun beat down on the top of crepe myrtles, hollyhocks, and other plants.  Its gate was a faded red as well.  When dry I splattered periwinkle blue in the foreground.
