Tropical flower paintings

To lighten things up after my last post I thought I'd share a couple of my Mazatlan water colour paintings.  I've been having tons of fun exploring this medium this winter and I've finally overcome my painters block.  For years I was frozen trying to figure out what was a worthwhile subject for a painting. I kept thinking I had to do something that nobody had ever painted before. Now I see that any photograph I've taken can be a painting subject.  And I've taken hundreds!

The top photo is was finished just last week; the bottom one was done in December.  I'm not sure but I think I'm developing my skills.  And the cool thing about this medium is that it's simple to go back and tweak a section if I see a way to improve it.  Of course, it means that these paintings are never really finished.
