Cool Waters


This was a project for the online watercolor group I belong to. In this monthly project a photo is supplied and all who want to participate paint from the same photo. Each is encouraged to "make it their own" by changing things at will. This is my painting.
I don't often do landscapes so I am happy with the outcome of this one. Trees are always difficult for me so I eliminated a lot of the upper part of the photo to cut down on the trees. This also helped to make the water the focus of the painting.
