Hope you do lots more.Tracy Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618327920955524004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-72351595922273464672007-08-30T13:20:00.000-02:302007-08-30T13:20:00.000-02:30Nice job Jeanette.

I hope you do more watercolors.Terry Banderashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11385580002170019500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-29649304102534748252007-08-29T15:36:00.000-02:302007-08-29T15:36:00.000-02:30you've done a wonderful job on your skin tones, Je...you've done a wonderful job on your skin tones, Jeanette! that's tricky, IMO.Billie Crainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11336330932102277633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-40837100436107566862007-08-29T11:37:00.000-02:302007-08-29T11:37:00.000-02:30Jeanette, you would never guess from this self por...Jeanette, you would never guess from this self portrait that you are an infrequent watercolor user. If you would like to speed your drying times, use a hairdryer on a low setting. Works like a charm. Also, I recommend Jim Toogood as a good teacher. He is very knowledgable about paints and individual pigments. You can find his book at Amazon if you want to learn more about him. <BR/><BR/>I hope to see more watercolors from you. It is my favorite medium to use and to look at!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02494806312648513169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-90667715586462012362007-08-28T23:34:00.000-02:302007-08-28T23:34:00.000-02:30Thanks Jeanne.

The Muscovy ducks are the next to hatch and I can't wait to see those duckling.<BR/><BR/>Of course you can do a portrait in colour. All you have to do is try.Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-14317062962142346322007-08-28T20:56:00.000-02:302007-08-28T20:56:00.000-02:30I really like this.

I bet you really do feel like a "barnyard mom" between all the babies at your place. <BR/><BR/>I would love to be able to do my self portraits or any portraits in color. Especially watercolor. just something more I need to learn."JeanneG"https://www.blogger.com/profile/16398758813763335651noreply@blogger.com
