Flame Thrower IRIS watercolor

Flame Thrower is almost done.  It's been a fun journey working with the new FABRIANO paper.

I was thrilled with the way the paint handles..and astonished at how easily it lifts for corrections.  Also.. much easier to add a second glaze without making mud!

FABRIANO makes ARCHES paper look difficult.  I will probably NOT return to ARCHES... but use up what I've already purchased.  Time for a switch.


Stormy rainy day yesterday.  Another few storms on the way this week.  Should be a good week for watercolor!

Carol, your paintings on Arches are great, but this, on the Fabriano is so very much more beautiful. The painting is absolutely ALIVE!!! I can hardly wait to try it.
