Flower Fantasy Show

I picked up my New Member Show paintings and found out that my Flower Fantasy Show painting Yard Roses was juried in...great. Sad to hear that 100 other artists were noi.:(

Picking up paintings today

Today I am taking a trip to the RIWS to pick up my paintings from the Artist Member's Show.
I forgot to write down the number of my painting that I submitted to the Flower Fantasy Show, which starts next week—Feb 21-Mar 12. The ones that got acceptrd were listed on the web by number. I could call, but it will be fun to ask when I get there. Did I say fun? Actually I believe it is one of my less labored paintings (tgp). I hope nobody buys it because a lot of people like it and I might give it as a gift??
Actually, it is hard to give a painting away. Do they like it? Are they being nice? Too much pressure—just pick one you like!
2:00 am and finished with other work. :(

Boston Common Ducks

This is the start of a large watercolor painting. I am posting this as a way of forcing myself to jump in and tackle it.

Some papers take the paint in a different way. In art school, one of our assignments was to get 10 or more different types of paper and paint some watercolor on them. It was to show us that paper can make a big difference.
