3:53 PM:just got a new commission from mikela to create another horizontal watercolor/collage for the exhibition, to match this one:
i’ve made a tinted ground with inks and will start working tomorrow morning. BELOW: the tinted ink ground on arches paper. what you see on that white paper in the middle are my tests of the color I wanted to use.
the tinted ground on arches watercolor paper cut to 11x23”
11:43 AM: when i woke up this morning it was 11° and overcast. now the wind has picked up & is gusting to 35mph and the temperature is hovering at 25°F. mikela has the car today, so I walked over to the studio dressed like this. didn’t think i’d need gloves any more this season!
