From my sketchbook ~ how I paint a landscape in watercolor


from my sketchbook ~ by Jane LaFazio
My husband and I went on a picnic at nearby Lake Poway. That's him below, hauling out food and drinks in our new red wagon. I was carrying my sketchbook!
My sweet husband, Don
I thought you'd be interested on how I approach painting a landscape in watercolor.

    What a lovely post! Love how you approached it, and the folded paper makes me think how much fun it would be to start adding larger fold-out pages to my sketchbooks.

    Thank you for sharing your way of sketching in progress.
    i hope to share this way of seeing with my most recent students.
    There is something so wondrous about including a body of water!

    Nice painting. Like the way you handled that dry, rather unattractive landscape, you made it much more appealing. Looks like you guys had a nice morning/afternoon picnic. And I love your new red wagon. :-)
