Rumor had it that today would be unseasonable warm and that was correct. Can’t complain about sitting outside in near 50F sunshine, painting and listening to the canadian geese trying to lord it over each other.
These were on the new paper, the first two on the turner 140 weight and the last, started to let number two dry and flatten a bit, was on the leonardo 300 weight.
Am currently reinstalling scanner software because unless I included a bright background these scanned in technicolor. I finally gave up and used ImageCapture which had its own weirdness but at least the color was better. Geesh. I would have been excited to have painted the scanned versions!

Glad you got out in the warm and sun! I puttered in the yard a bit this weekend, after releasing my latest batch of basement mice. Reducing the infestation humanely.
Also hearing and watching the honking geese overhead, flying between nearby bodies of water.
I continue to be fascinated by the effects you get with various paints, strokes, and papers. I like the third one best, with its sky and spare structure; the one on the 300 lb paper. What do you observe in them?
Scanner. Show me the technicolor! Technicolor watercolor is, I think, an oxymoron. Or maybe I am! [Mind running wild.]
Nice work!!
