Work In Progress 8/30



Work in Progress watercolor by Carrie Waller 10.5 " x 12"
Thought I would share my work in progress.  I had the best time painting the zinnias.  That is why I love painting commissions because I never would have painted a zinnia if not for this painting.

    So looking amazing, Carrie!! I know it shouldn't surprise when people love Shakespeare but for me that old English syntax is too much a pain to translate. LOL

      Sherry, the lady I'm painting this for is a retired English and Humanities teacher. She taught Shakespeare for years.

    Wow - this is stunning! I LOVE panting gilded books. The last bear I posted had a selection of old gilded books in it and they were my favorite part to paint. It's the gold lettering and rough edges I enjoy so much :0)
    This is going to be beautiful! :0)

      Thanks Sandra:) I agree I love painting the old tattered, gilded books. I had the best time getting the texture on the top book, it really looks exactly like the book:)
