Playing with water color

This is my first attempt at watercolor.  When I studied with Nicora Gangi, a master pastelist in still life, she introduced me to pastel by having me copy the masters.  Those lessons with Nicora opened my heart to my favorite French Impressionists and the medium of pastel. So with no watercolor training, and a beautiful box of Schminke Pan Water colors and a Moleskin water color journal, I decided to copy Winslow Homer's Gloucester Harbor watercolor (1873).
