watercolor, chasing/repousse in progress

Haven't posted in a long time...

(22"x30" watercolor...WakeMaker)

There'll be better photos when they are completed.

(various incompleted small poundings)

I never looked at a watercolor with the poundings like this....they feel good together...guess it does make sense...same mind....same world...so these must be some of the remnants of the world I'm always arting...like an historian collecting things from the places he goes to document.
