Fall is not my favorite time of the year, but I do love the colors . . .
The happy surprise for me was finding out that watercolors
can actually be blended to some extent. Working
with just the right half of the maple leaf, I colored the lower part with Red,
and then right away, did the tips with Yellow, continuing down into the Red and
back up 2/3 of the way in order to blend.
Then I repeated on the left half of the leaf. It worked much better than I thought it
would. Maybe I'm beginning to get the
hang of this coloring gig after all!
To all who celebrate, a blessed Thanksgiving to each and
every one of you . . .
