Thanks for the invitation to join this group. I do paint with WSO's but I do it in fits and starts. I started using them because in the region I live, you don't want to open windows in the winter. Smile
At the present time I'm doing watercolors, but that could change in a heartbeat. I'll check in with the group and see how things are getting on. My very best wishes to you all.

Welcome Henry,
I'm so glad you joined us. Like many an artist, we all use different mediums at different times to accomplish different things. I respect people who do watercolors. I love how they look, but always feel threatened, because it is so hard to cover up a mistake. With WSO's and acrylics, you can just do it over and no body knows the difference.

Be sure to post some of your work. We would love to see it.

Judy

Hi Henry! Welcome to the forum! I tried watercolors once and found them so difficult. I think I was trying to make them opaque which defits the whole purpose. Thank you for your support and keep in mind that you can share what you're up to in other mediums in our General Chat area. Smile
