Hi Christian: i love your watercolours..such vividness and flair that one does not often see in watercolours. Your paintings are so alive and such a difficult medium. Acrylics are far more forgiving. Thank you for becoming a follower. I am so pleased and look forward to keeping tabs on your art. elspeth armstrong
