THE SCHOOL

I did the drawing for this a couple of weeks ago while Alyssa played at the playground. It was yet another day without rain and after taking care of some things at the library, I sat down to finish it off in watercolor, but when the water hit the lines it was pretty much over..... I had forgotten I'd drawn with the bleeding brown ink... no way to get the right color of the building. 40% chance of rain tomorrow.... may be my last outside painting for a while.

still a very nice effect with the bleeding lines...it doesn't matter what the original colour is, it's still a unique piece of art!
