I wanted to share with you my latest painting. This is a watercolor painting I just finished up. It's been a little while since I've had the chance to sit down and paint something. I think the weather lately has prompted my desire for lots of color of spring and I love the birch trees that we have up north! I hope you like it!

February 9, 2016 by · 3 Comments
I'm going to break this post up in few parts because there are so many photos and information to share. So this is part one.
