It's been a goal of mine for quite some time to send out more snail mail. When I found out that a good friend of mine, whose birthday happens to be this this week, loves pumpkins, it was the perfect opportunity. To celebrate her birthday and our mutual love of pumpkins, I made her my very first water color card. I folded an 11in x 15in watercolor paper in half and started painting away.
These pumpkins were created with a number of washes each...way more than I expected to use. I wanted to get a vibrant color, but I haven't quite figured how to achieve it and blend in properly at the same time. Fortunately, it's fun to practice.
