I'm feeling blue.. portrait

This watercolor portrait is from 1987. I was cleaning out my flat files and stumbled upon it.

I wanted to throw it away -- but decided to add another wash to it for the possibilites. I covered most of the painting with an Antwerpt Blue glaze.

Imagine my surprise... when it turned out a little deeper and better than I expected!

So... I will spend a little more time on it -- to bring it around to new conclusion.

My students in the studio -- thought I had done a painting of my son. How neat! This portrait was of me 26 years ago... and that's about the age his is now.

Fun~

Enjoy...
