I first experienced your art at Watercolor Live 25. I did your class on "Sunny Girl" a small 5x5 portrait of a young girl. It's the first color portrait I've done that I "like". So I decided to check out your site. I love to paint animals and birds too. This opossum is lovely and speaks of spring and yes the pink toes and nose are cute and made me smile. I will be following your blog and applied for your newsletter. Thanks for all the tips, especially using the eradicator on hair. I'm still learning and went a litter overboard but enjoyed doing it.
