WDE 19 Aug 12 Tomatoes and Zinnia
Thanks Susan for doing this. Excellent group to choose from. I chose the window with tomatoes and zinnia. It's a watercolor - a little overworked, but I'm generally pleased. That two-hour limit prevented me from making it even more over-worked.
Tomatoes and Zinnia 11x15 cold-press watercolor

Such a lovely watercolor Jan - It is so bright and alive, you feel like you could pick up one of those tomatoes and eat it!
