Venice Canal

This was painted on Frederix Watercolor Canvas..and it was a learning curve for me...  I recently watched Tom Lynch paint wonderful paintings on it and thought it would be interesting to try. 

This eliminates glass which is always good for hanging.  I guess I missed the fact that you had to wet the surface first and wipe it briskly with a rag.   I found the paint just bubbled on the surface and was very difficult to move.  It is easy to remove something you don't like .. wet it and it comes off... however, when i  tried to glaze it also moved the paint already down.

So, if you want to try this remember to wet it and rub it first.  I assume there is a sizing on it that has to be removed.

  2. Very nice Ruth. It is good to see that you are painting and exploring new methods. There is nothing wrong with the way you usually paint but to explore is to grow. It is fun too.
