another red head


it seems when i get to the point where i do not want to, or don't have the desire to paint , i drag out the paper, pen and watercolours.......this is a 15 minute sketch and color......i have a limited palette of watercolours that i use when i am sitting around watching tv.......that is why i turn out all these red heads.......i surprise myself with these sketches....some of them turn out pretty good.....i think.....

She is lovely. When we start painting next week you will find that it is a lot like using your watercolors!

She's beautiful! And I love what you've done in Flora's class too..

She is really beautiful, Janie! Maybe you should try and paint one of these lovely girls on one of your 36 x36s! I know you could do it. :))

So beautiful! It is a good plan to limit your palette...Her eyes are full of personality:)

Hi Janie,
Thanks for your comment. I am determined to make myself use these lare canvases. I collaged scrapbook paper all over another one. I have not idea what it will become. Hope your weekend is going great.
