Found this in my archives of watercolor people paintings. It was painted on 140lb cold press, about 10 inches by 16 inches. Looks like he's painting Monterrey Bay. Sure wish I was there painting Monterrey Bay!!!!! Note how I use lots of color hue variation and value changes. Lots of juicy washes too...some thin and some more honey-like in consistency.

I live too far away to attend your classes, but your comments always give food for thought. See you soon.
and I love how left the 'light' in the painting!
Love the unique composition, David.
Sat staring at this one. Love that quin. gold square in the middle - the texture/color and the blending in the clothing.
Lydie, food for thought is good! I certainly get fed a lot by looking at other artists I admire like Charles Reid.
Meera, When I don't leave enough light, I tear up the painting.
Thanks as usual, Autumn.
Dan, Yes, the Q gold is a great counterpoint to all the blue.
Love this. Just stumble across you and your work. Always enjoy the pleasure of seeing other's output. Great stuff.
