"Pot, Bottle, & Poppys"




This started as a 'demo' @ the Walhalla class in watercolors.. it was pretty pathetic.. I painted on it all day yesterday using some of the technics i showed them. Washes, salt application, shading, putting spots of color where you don't expect them... it turned out a little wilder that i thought it would.. i also dismissed some of the suggestions i gave the class.. we won't talk about that!!!.. but I love the background..

I didn't like the space between the subjects.. so  Wah-la I added the old blue bottle that i have painted many times plus some grapes on the left.. like it so much better.  Isn't art fun???
