SO, watercolor. I have to say that I really enjoy it. The amount of pigment or water has an effect on the beautiful layers and light/darkness. So light and relaxing, I find it fits for an evening in, or a summer day painting in nature.

I am sorry for waiting so long to keep posting, I guess I have been moving around a lot and it`s hard to setup and find a moment to focus.

It's open for interpretation what possibly they could want more of.Once again, Goodnight.
