That is a lovely painting! Did you do it yourself?
Laura,
At your recommendation, I've acquired a copy of "My Love Affair With England.." I look forward to delving into it!
Sommer, thank you! Yes, I did some watercolor painting two summers ago, which is when I painted this rose.
Mrs. MacAodhagain (what a neat name!), enjoy the book! :)
wow.
That is beautiful! I wish I could paint like that! Did you take watercolor classes? If yes, do you mind if I ask where, like was it at a major craft store, or private lessons?
Thanks April! Yes, I did take a class through a local art gallery. It was helpful to see a pro's techniques, and to get the chance to use high-quality paints and papers. If you're interested in lessons, a place to start might be a local art store or a college that offers art classes in your area. I hope you can find something that suits you!
