First Signs of Spring

I went for a run one afternoon after work, and noticed that it felt like the first official day of Spring. Everyone was outside, smiling, and there was green popping up everywhere.

I mixed as many greens as I could in order to experiment more, and create the colors I saw.

I use artist's tape with watercolor, since it makes a lovely clean line and also flattens the watercolor paper after it dries. It worked in this case too.

Palette knives and anything makes you feel artsy. It's true.
