Alhambra Palace, Granada II

Several weeks ago, I took a wonderful watercolor workshop with Jean Haines where I started a painting of the Alhambra Palace.  I got some great feedback from Jean and based upon that, I did this second painting of it at home (done without a pencil sketch).  I am not sure if it is complete, but I will let it be for now.

watercolor washes

I have been working on and off on a highly detailed watercolor for quite some time. Beginning the day with these watercolor washes has been a wonderful way to relax, enjoy the slow process of the wash, be patient, and simply loosen up.  

I also enjoy these as it's wonderful to begin with something not knowing exactly where it will lead.
