Did you know the four setter breeds of dog, the Gordon setter, the Irish setter, the Irish red & white setter, and the English setter were all developed from the medieval setting spaniel, which was trained to point out birds, then lie down so a net could be cast over both birds and dog?

He had been calling them Eppsicles, but his children called them “Pop’s ‘sicles,” and that\'s the name that stuck . This looks a bit like a print, but it was an experiment to see if I could get away with using masking fluid and salt. As it turns out, I did. I\'ll want to try this some more using different papers but both the salt and the masking fluid came off just fine. * Hahnemühle Rough Collection Watercolor paper * Van Gogh Watercolor * Image inspiration - photo by m_krohn on Pixabay @Hahnemühle_USA @ #royaltalensNA #LifeImitatesDoodles #Doodlewash #WorldWatercolorGroup Popsicles - Van Gogh watercolors on Hahnemühle Rough Collection watercolor paper

I have found that by painting still life either form photos or from real still life subject is the best practice to develop a fine level of realism in watercolors or any medium actually. And that’s why I keep going back to my still fife subject from time to time… Remember practicing will bring that master hiding deep inside you!!!!! hazelnuts
