Hartford Avenue Stone Bridge Watercolor
This 12x16 watercolor has been a seven week journey. Not only my largest attempt, but probably more hours than any other. I'm ok with it, but not delighted. I am at the point where the best way to make it better is to get a new photo from a better angle and start over. I know the angle I want and will start it sometime this year.

This is one of my favorite scenes and also the most worked-on of all of my pictures. I have nine different saved photo edits with five in color plus countless discarded edits. I have also painted from this photo at least four times with two keepers. I love to take pictures when I travel but was faced with brown fields when we visited this Siena location one September.
