Watercolours II

Just briefly...here is my finished watercolour painting. I'm not entirely displeased with it, though there is clearly room for improvement. I also did a second painting, seen with the corresponding photo (taken in Maine, again by my parents). I have a tendency to overwork my pieces when using watercolours, and this is evident in both of my paintings. It can be really difficult with watercolours to get the colours you desire [i.e. those that most accurately match the reference], and it's equally hard to maintain control over the paints. But I do like some aspects of the two I have here and I hope to do some more when I have a free moment.
