You are so good at doing all the things one is supposed to do--the value studies/sketches, etc. I admire that so much about you. And you do it so successfully. I love these two--and I kind of like that wet second one! It's less "controlled," but so loose and wet and lovely.A Brush with Colorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638723986208929476noreply@blogger.com
