I love willow trees! And that swishy water sound when you rinse the brush, lol!

I'd love to see some of your very first paintings. Do you still have any?

[blueheronarts]

Good question. The oldest painting I have in hand are about 20 years ago. I have a copy of a newspaper from 1975 when my first landscape painting was published at the age of 15 one year after I study the art. I will try to made a slides show with some photos.

That should be fun to watch. Published at 15? Gotta love that!

yeah it looks relaxing, im just getting started, i know how to watercolor but this looks more difficult than regular watercoloring. any suggestions before i get started?

[blueheronarts]

Don't start to master baboo and orchid until 3-4 years of experience with the media. Blue Heron is the lesson one in my class so try to start from here. If you still feel too difficult, try to paint landscape first.

amazing, how long have you been doing this?

[blueheronarts]

More than thirty years. I enjoyed it from very beginning. It's very fun to do.
