Going Home


Painting of the week, an 8 by 10 inch watercolor from a days walk by the ocean in Hilton Head.  Such a peaceful place, a great place to clear your mind.

    Ah, a huge complement Kathryn, I have such a hard time painting water!
    I may have been encouraged to try another water painting!

    re:yellow lab. Thank you for the input, Maria. I was a bit lazy, and did not finish tongue. For the background, I thought I would do a soft undefined one of various blues and blue-greys to complement the yellow.
