Heart To Heart watercolor on aqua aquaboard

Heart to Heart 8 by 10 watercolor on aqua board

My latest watercolor on Ampersand aquaboard.  My daughter and her horse were my models for this, once again that cell phone camera sure comes in handy.

Being a vet, and being married to a vet, I have so many friends who tell me their children would like to become veterinarians.  It is tough to steer kids in that direction, based on the expense of attending vet school.  So difficult to pay off those student loans on a vets salary.

    1. Thank you Diana! I really enjoyed painting this one, and I was touched to see how my daughter claimed it! She doesn't usually notice my paintings :)

    Madness how our students end up with such debt. Its not very forward looking of the people in charge :(

    1. Thank you Pat. It's funny to see how the vet schools have become primarily women. I think the men don't believe the cost is worth the salary coming out of school. Will be interesting to see how the trend continues.
