    Lovely, Gary. Your trees are a thing of beauty IMHO. The top painting makes me long for spring!

        Thanks AbA. The first is an adaptation of another Artist’s work. I used it as it gave me the same longing for Spring.

        Thanks Dave. I use watercolors mixed with white gouache for my “gouache” paintings. I am surprised how well that seems to work. I am trying to improve enough to use it as a plein air medium.

        Thanks Doug. I know you work in similar mediums plein air. Yours is one of the examples that I hope to follow. Gary

            Nice paintings. I love the third one. Light violet brings out the vibrancy of the orange and green so well.

                My favorite is the Shiawassee Farm painting. It looks like you are enjoying the medium.

                Thanks Chaithram. I tried to use a little more color in the third. I am glad liked it.

                Thanks Contumacious. I am to my surprise enjoying the use of watercolors mixed with with white gouache. I still have a lot to learn.
