A Painting A Day ~ Heritage Series #1
4"x 6" Original Miniature Watercolor
SOLD!

What I look for in a portrait is character.
A face that shows the wear of life.
This is an 1890 soldier.

ABOUT THE PAINTINGS:

Each watercolor is painted on 300lb Cold Press watercolor paper. I use transparent watercolors occasionally adding ink to the wash. I paint in a series of washes to build color, creating shadows and a strong use of light.
The PAINTING A DAY paintings started January 1, 2007.

Variations in monitor settings plus my camera skills may not exactly duplicate the actual colors in the painting. I do my best!

I plan to work in two sizes.
An image of 5"x5" with a 1/2" border or
an image of 4"x6" with a 1/2" border.

You will need to take your new painting to a frame shop to be framed. For shipping, each miniature original watercolor will be placed in a protective sleeve with a foamcore back.

Paintings that do not sell are then placed on my show stand at a price commensurate to my other work.
