Looking back I see none of the in progress posts about this piece made it to my blog. I'm sorry as there were many step-by-steps......I feel it may be too confusing now to post.....so I'm jumping ahead to the finished piece.
My long time (1960's roommate who married 'the husband's roommate) sent me a photo of a watercolor she painted. I was awed and though I've only tried to recreate a photograph a few times before, decided to have a go at this.
It was HARD!!!! The construction method was quite different from my norm.....but as you know, I do like a challenge.....so here's my piece. It's available for purchase. Contact me for further details.
