Blue Shutters


7.5x7 watercolor on Canson XL 140 lb cold press paper done today for a timed WetCanvas event.  Using one of 16 photo references provided by Helen in Michigan, participants had 2 hours to select and paint their choice.  This was a window in Provence that I cropped from a larger picture.  Using a #6 round brush only, no predrawing with pencil, it was done within an hour.   I especially liked the striped awnings and red geraniums.
