Oaks at Creek
It's been ages since I've been to the city, and this is what I paint on arrival! Lol! I met artist friends (the Monday Morning Watercolorists) at Suburban Lawn and Garden this afternoon, and I walked around back to scout out that lovely creek before going in. How could I possibly leave this spot unpainted?!! Pulling out a 3x3 inch paper, I did a quick sketch followed with watercolor. I tried 3 different water brush pens before settling on one. I need to throw out the worn out ones and mark one that is super loose with the water! It is good to use for a wet area, but really not good on those branches and leaves! Thank goodness I had what I needed, because I just grabbed that bag on my way out. I have been known to raid supplies from another sketch bag - leaving myself wanting at another time! Oh the life of the artist! Painting number 2967 in 2967 days.
