This is a watercolor of Barbara's house in Stonington, Maine. It's done on Fredrix watercolor canvas which I'm not sure I like for watercolor, but may work better with opaque watermedia, like acrylic or gouache. After many attempts to photograph this painting, the results are washed out. Disappointing, but I suppose I should read the camera book?

Love it.. and am hanging onto every word.....
Nice one Mary! I am all moved BACK to California! Love it here in the Sierra Nevada foothills...just gorgeous...can't wait to get painting! Tired of all this damm unpacking...it's just like work!
Read the book?... never.
instructions are for very extreme confusion---or for wusses. Just get creative with it.
Thanks all for the 'skip the book' vote :D
I actually have had to go to the book and carry it with me ;)
