Wye River

Hi, this is my first time posting. I attempted yesterday, but I must have done something wrong. I have been painting in watercolor since October. I love it. I just wish I had more skills. I have had 2 sets of lessons and I am craving more. A lot of the lessons around here are during the day, and I work to put 3 kids thru college, so... I have ordered lots of DVD lessons and have scoured the net for more. That is how I have arrived here. This watercolor was done on 140lb Arches with Winsor Newton paints. I love the rich vibrant colors. Let me know how I can be better. Usually my trees and shrubs turn out awful. I am getting good at water rushes!
