interesting,indeed the oil has it's unique imprint ,i also did a little with watercolor,but i think i'm not very experienced with watercolor yet,i'm still experimenting
Artist Reply: MANY THANKS CRISTEA. IT'S FUN TO USE DIFFERENT MEDIUMS AT TIMES. MY FAVORITE IS SEASCAPES IN OIL BUT ENJOY WORKING IN WATERCOLORS TOO. COLORED PENCIL IS FUN.
Joanie: I can actually feel the "wind chill" that your work so accurately shows! I too live where it is cold...the midwest and spring can't come fast enough! Keep up your fine work and please continue to work in colored pencil.
