Well, this is my version of the dragon-fly for the June project of Watercolor Workshop. Let's just put it this way...I have done better paintings! As you can see, my wings are not near what they are in the source photo and my head is too small. I had a lot of trouble with the wing that is in the back and that you can see through the other back wing. Not all paintings turn out or are successful paintings, but all of my paintings are a learning experience. Enough said!
Watercolor is my passion. After teaching art in the public schools for 40 + years I now have time to create art for myself. I am a watercolorist who sometimes likes to work in mixed media as well. My journey in art began when I was a small child and continues to this day. Barbara Hart Sailor

Tiger, Tiger, Burning Bright is beautiful. I'm glad you decided to post it.
Thanks, Brent. I don't know why blogspot is not letting me have access to comments on tiger, so thank you for doing it on dragon fly. I love your blog and your paintings.
