water color

A little progress. 

watercolor and ink sketch

Spent several hours sketching three vases of flowers and the very first line I made on the drawing was wrong. In water color, no matter how you try to correct, it is IMPOSSIBLE! Gawd.

Not a big deal but the water color paper is so expensive! I did learn that instead of doing three vases of dead zinnias, a closeup is better visually. So I'm going to use the wrong sketch to test my color and strokes before painting the closeup.
