Sky Gold - SOLD
Sky Gold Detail, Left side painted
The sky the other night was an incredible sight. It's been a long time since I've seen such a gorgeous sunset (probably because we can see so much of it here, the land is flat.) Piles of golden yellow top clouds, and all those sunset colors below. Just amazingly beautiful.
This one is gallery wrapped and painted around all the edges, and so needs no frame, although if you wanted to, you could use one. Thanks for looking.

Iris in Lavender and Green, Detail
This is something a bit different for me, in doing watercolor. I taped the edges and used the whole image area to paint in. With mask I protected the edges of the petals, and then floated in color wet-on-wet behind the flowers. It got a little rough and messy, so there was a lot of layering and lifting to do to the background after it all dried. But even though it's different for me, it's also kind of cool. Thanks for looking.
