Your final watercolor was so sweetly pleasing that I wanted had a vanity to place it next too. Elegant! <BR/>How smart of you to just get on the plane and see that adorable grandchild and your daughter. Who could resist such a soft baby bundle!

Ah, but we need you! :) Grandma is going to be there to spoil this little one. I do not think I can even begin to imagine how your heart is feeling right now.<BR/><BR/>I love this painting! The flower blossoms are clearly flower blossoms, but you have placed more here, too. I love the way the intensity is just below the center and then washes out more as you have arrived at the edges...very appealing composition in that way. It is abstract enough to not be sure the type of flowers you are painting, but representational enough to know you were pulled in by that lovely profusion of blossoms. Yes, there is a lot of Dianne here...I can see and feel that. Truly Beautiful Work!<BR/><BR/>Thank you also, for describing your process. I think I would enjoy the watercolor pencil on the sandpaper trick!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!Andrea and Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15337904921232330088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748277869905059222.post-4621586939611074902009-02-16T15:33:00.000+02:002009-02-16T15:33:00.000+02:00What a very good idea, to have artists painting at...What a very good idea, to have artists painting at an exhibition.

Enjoy being with her....The Plein Air Exhibtiion was brilliant and the standard of work so high that I'm sure you had plenty of sales. I so enjoyed the opening and seeing all my special painting friends again. You must have thought you were in paradise, painting in Noeleen's exquisite garden the whole weekend! I love your watercolour of the roses! I can tell you had such fun experimenting. I have not thought to use oil pastel as a resist for watercolour - I usually use wax crayon and am often disappointed. This opens up new posibilities for play!!!
