I mentioned in a previous post that I was starting to hand paint some of the etchings I had done a few years back. One was "gold leafed" and seen in a previous post. The one below is my first hand coloring job. Fun and mind relaxing.

This yellow one is small, 4 x 6. I'm planning to go to Hobby Lobby and get some nice frames to pop these into, ready for the
Spring Art Tour. I'll post various versions of this same etching when I finish them.

The following painting is done on arches hot press using watercolor and guache. I am playing around with figures and opaque w/c after taking a class with Donna Zagotta.

I picked up a fancy frame, gold leaf, at Hobby Lobby, $20 with glass and gold leaf moulding, size 12 x 40... which makes for an interesting format. Here's where I went with it. I really look forward to seeing it framed up.
