Laura's horse

11 x 15
watercolor
arches 140 lb natural white

This painting took 2 tries to get it right. The one below of the dark horse took me 4 tries. I'm getting used to throwing away paintings! But, I just haven't found a way to correct watercolors. That water just won't behave!

WOW! As a horse-woman an a watercolorist, I can honestly say you have done a great job! It was really worth the four attempts, Vicki.

Vicki, i've tried oil, pastel and watercolor. Watercolor is the most unforgiving. You are doing a great job with it!
