Sunday Best - watercolor

watercolor, 2017
available, 11"x15"

      Now that Horror Month is over let's head back to church. This one was done from an old black-and-white photo. Family photos were taken very seriously at one time. I'm sure this family is wearing their finest clothes to show off one of their prized possessions, their new automobile. I'm pretty happy with this one, though I'd like to have been a little looser.

  1. I love your use of light in this - that is one of the things that scare me about watercolour, and you've done a fabulous job. There is also an energy in this piece as if they are just about to drive off if I look away. A lovely piece of work.

    Thank you so much for sharing and happy PPF!

    Best wishes,
    Liz
