Scooter Watercolor Update
I'm still working on the Morgan gelding watercolor. Part of my problem with this has been getting the color just right. Every time I scan it, it comes out differently. There just doesn't seem any way to adequately reproduce the color of the original in this painting. Anyway -- here finally is the finished image. (I think.)
I think the watercolor looks absolutely beautiful. But I know what you are going through, second guessing yourself over the finished product. One of my daughters is an artist and she is never satisfied and so does a lot of refinishing. I have to say it drives me crazy, especially when I think it looks great. I guess an artists eye is different and they can see the flaws they think are there.
