WATERCOLOR..INK..&..DR PH MARTIN'S BLEED PROOF WHITE.
THIS WAS AN EXPERIMENT WITH THE BLEED PROOF WHITE....
The main snow on the tree was created by leaving the paper white.
The falling snow and some of the drifts on the ground was created with the bleed proof white, USED WITH A FAN BRUSH....It seems to work pretty well...:)..AS FAR AS COVERING WATERCOLOR.

GOLDEN DAFFODILS....Coming soon...:)
WATERCOLOR & INK
Haiku...GOLDEN DAFFODILS
Golden daffodils
Announcing the beginnings
Long awaited Spring.
**********************************
The Daffodils
I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils,
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:—
A poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company!
I gazed, and gazed, but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
By William Wordsworth

REMEMBERING MY AMARYLLIS
REMEMBERING MY AMARYLLIS
The year before I moved here, these were growing in large clumps OUTSIDE in my yard in North San Diego County in California. There were many clumps and one clump had 21 stalks blooming.....:)
Here is a photo of one clump...http://www.flickr.com/photos/27259847@N00/3391229706/in/set-72157604692395486/
OR...See my Carlsbad, San Marcos, San Diego set. Several photos there.

GARDEN FANTASY
I am so longing for the snow and cold to be gone....I went out in the yard and stared at the snow for awhile yesterday , hoping to see flowers popping up but alas, none appeared, so I had to ''dream some up''...:)
Fun though, with acrylic, acrylic ink and micron pen.
