How fabulous is this watercolor? So many little things make it really stand out as a knock out piece. The water is wonderful and that little splash from the oar… brilliant! It’s fabulous how the little pops of bright color highlight just the perfect amount. Andy has some amazing work, check out his website if you get a chance!

This painting, Plying the River Pearl, was accepted into the 2014 American Watercolor Society show in New York! Congratulations Andy!

I love the warm colors in this watercolor. You can actually feel the sunlight… oooh, that fabulous pop of yellow and those perfectly defined shadows make this one nice painting! I encourage you to look through Andy’s paintings, they are nothing short of fabulous!
