A start on the watercolors

Preliminary watercolors

This is only about half finished, but I thought I’d post a progress picture.  The weather here this week  hasn’t been good with close to 12″ of snow over 3 snowfalls and some serious windchills, so I probably should have gotten more done, but I am fighting a bad cold too and I haven’t felt much like working.

As you can see, the colors are quite a vibrant mix of reds, greens, and yellows.  I have just the basics down so far, with not much in the way of depth yet, but over the next few days, I’ll try to get it finished.  I really like the bold color combinations of the bricks and trim.  There is so much more character here than compared with modern architectural taste.  I think it’s why I love small town buildings so much.
