I'm simplifying and posting paintings on my Facebook page "Debra Smith Watercolors". Since the blog duplicates my Facebook page, I'm discontinuing posting here. Here is my page. https://www.facebook.com/debrasmithwatercolors/

Painted the geese colors first on the damp paper

Carefully added the background blues around the geese

The paint is still wet, but it's starting to take shape as it blends all together.

After the paint dried a little, I could lift off the brightest areas.

I like the finished product, but I covered up the cool colors in the last stage. My goal is to learn how to keep the freshness of the mixed paints, and still have form that is recognizable.
