    This is such a lovely painting, Karen! I love that you included so much technical content in it in such a short time frame. It is easy to follow and the end result is wonderful. I think the addition of the people really added to the painting and I get a calm and cozy feeling looking at it 😊. I am a beginning watercolorist so this will be a wonderful painting for me to practice those techniques. I will definitely give it a go by the weekend and see how I do 😀 thanks so much! 💕

    What a beautiful scene. Those techniques are so difficult to master, but essential. Thank you for the tips! When I used the corner of a plastic card it tore the cheap paper, so I switched to a wooden cuticle stick. It gave me lots more control and didn’t dig into the paper.
