I started working on this yesterday and felt I could include this in today's IC:https://www.imagekind.com/clematis_a...4-65d95c9690c4
Last week's WCW was watercolor wet on damp. Nothing stayed very wet or damp in the heat we had this week. Over 100F on Wednesday and I can't remember the last time we were that hot. I guess LaCrosse had over 100 in 1995 but I wasn't coming here then. I have discovered that it is indeed hotter on this side of Wisconsin that on the other side. That Mississippi River doesn't have a lake effect like Lake Michigan does. Ha!
My goal was to do a very whimsical, fantastical flower. I found a drawing I liked online, drew it myself and then started watercoloring. I am not the most patient person when it comes to wc so the whole wet into damp was definitely challenging and I'm not sure I even came close. My intention was for this to look somewhat like a clematis, since those are a favorite with me, but I admit it looks more like a poinsettia. That's why I didn't finish this; I couldn't decide what it was. BTW, I really like Marena's paints...nice and creamy, lovely colors.
Thanks for the challenges!
