Just finished this one this morning. It is amazing the color difference when you actually shoot in daylight 🙂 the blue is still a little off, but that’s on my monitor who knows lol I calibrate my monitor with software and hardware and it is still a mystery to me.
It is sunny here today I am hoping that the temperature gets high enough for me to varnish this one today.
Gorgeous, Krista! The colors look wonderful on my monitor also.
I am curious how you frame the varnished paintings on board. Do you add a firm backing to ensure that the board does not bow after framing?
Thank you Christiane, I did not realize how off the blue was until the painting was finished and I took it down to the office (way off) this one is almost exact (on my monitor) with a board this big i am debating what to support the back with, foam core works good for the smaller ones, or even mat board. I am going to try a cheap canvas(the ones glued to the board) It is acid free and will be firm enough hopefully. I will let you know 🙂
Very nice! It's snowing here right now, so flowers and green look wonderful!!
So beautiful, Krista…..you are an inspiration to me.
Thank you, Krista, for the info.
Formidable ma chère Krista!! Je suis heureuse de voir votre travail achevé.
Il n'est jamais facile d'obtenir les couleurs juste avec les photos… Mais il est Ă©vident que votre oeuvre est splendide.
Bisous
This came out so well! Beautiful! I didn't realize you could varnish a watercolour…how do you do that? A spray?
Krista,
It's beautiful, tulips , vase, and beautiful cast shadows, well done.
Absolutely gorgeous!

Absolutely exquisite! That vase is very impressive – I love how you painted the stems through the cut crystal. A beautiful touch of spring.
Thank you Barb, the crystal was a challenge as it was the first time I have painted it!
beautiful tulips, great work on the vase too…
