New Watercolor

Bedroom Window #1  (Water Color on Cold Press, 5 in by 7in)

Had a great adventure associated with this lovely old brick home.  If you'd like to read more, check out our Kennington family blog spot site.

I happened on to the south side of the house just at the right time on a hot afternoon.  Shadows were lovely, brick color and texture were great!

The bricks need some adjustment - and the bright red one needs toned down.  Next time I'll paint the rose bushes in the foreground and then mask them off to try and preserve the definition - same with the cottonwood leaves in the upper left.  The shadows need some toning down too - they should all be the same depth of blue, maybe wash the brick with yellow.

But for a starting point I was pretty pleased.
