January Color Series
Last fall Laura F. shared her 2005 color series with the EDM group. I am such a novice with watercolor paints that I just made the change from student grade pan paints to Winsor-Newton artist grade tube paints. This seemed like a great time to play with color mixing (my favorite part), so I used blue for January- a frosty cold winter month in the Northeast. I am also just learning how to build a webpage with help from my home-grown, computer expert son so this is my first attempt to add 3 pop-up images to the page. Hope this all works. If not, he is visiting from Boston this weekend, so I'll be able to ask for HELP!
I just tested the entry and learned that the second and third images will open only if the one before is closed properly. Sometimes the previous pop-up was still open and was actually hidden until I reduced the size of the window to see it lurking behind the page. This is probably novice information for some of you, but my skills building and editing webpages is really at beginner level.

Hi Shirley! These are neat!! I too just bought a few tubes of WN ... I have their Cotman pans ... how are you liking the tubes? I'm not sure the tubes are as vivid as I thought they would be.

Shirley, what lovely pages! I'm glad you're enjoying your color studies--I certainly enjoyed mine and found them extremely helpful.

Very nicely done. You've handled your color project very well. Something to think about, that's for sure. Hope to see your February sketches. Now that March is coming up, what color--possibly green?
