Barbara, just looked up your image in the PA Watercolor Exhibition catalog... what great colors and what a nightmare to produce and control in watercolor. Congrats on being accepted into the show. Denny
Barbara Jewell replied:
Thanks, Denny! It took me a while to get started on it, but once I decided on an approach, it was actually quite exciting watching it "emerge!"

Robert Harmon
I thought this was a photo that had been photoshoped until taking a closer look. Fabulous work!
Barbara Jewell replied:
Thanks so much for your comment, Robert! (Great idea for a contest, by the way!) Many people think as you did at first. This piece took me longer to complete than any I have done, and it is one of my personal favorites. Maybe thanks to this contest, it will get some closer looks. Thanks!!
