It has very soft lighting, and because of this, subtle tones that were very fun to work with. I especially liked the overall richness of the piece. It was finished off […] Read more »
Rabbit in the Moss, Sepia watercolor on board, 5in x 7in, ©Rebecca Latham I’m frequently visited by several little rabbits, most often in the mornings. It lights up my day a bit to see a little furry visitors as I grab a cup of coffee and peek out the window […] Read more »

Everything was very impressive. :D (I didn’t, however, get the chance to go […] Read more »
