All of these sketches were done with Gouache/Watercolor on a Moleskin Watercolor sketchbook. Not the best time of the year to be out sketching, as it was in the high 40's low 50's, but fun was had by all.

ZupZup: I could tell from the drawings that you must be a guy. Very masculine style and use of colors. I feel a sense of loneliness from your paintings.

Wow, ZupZup...I remain a big fan of your work. These latest paintings are terrific! The color palette really does invoke feelings of temperature and season. ::sigh:: Just gorgeous.

Thank you everyone for the comments.....I didn't know my paintings said so much, but I'm glad you all enjoyed them. Hopefully later today or tomorrow I will be able to post up the work from the other couple of people that participated.

ZUPZUP, these are absolutely great... water above, water in front, water on paper - for you all works in harmony.
We had the same ^@*&%! weather here, but this landscapes excells in their nature beauty, and in paper also.

Zup Zup- Wow! What wonderful paintings, especially since they were done in such cold weather! I can almost feel the temperature drop just looking at them.

Jennifer- Love the textures on the pine tree.
