Thank you so much for your lovely comment, much appreciated Russell!

[@emilylaidlaw798]

I admire how much you are aware of yourself as an artist. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your talent.

[@moryemme7254]

These take my breath away, they are so special, I can feel the emotion behind them. The more I delve into the world of watercolour, the more interested I've become in this kind of abstract, loose approach!

[@barbaragemin5117]

You’re very good at these abstract paintings Lois. They’re always fun to do and the results sometimes surprise me. As you said, they need a bit of thought before putting card/ brush to paper.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks Barbara, it’s a very expressive way of painting that I really enjoy 🎨💐

I really love these small paintings, like a beautiful adagio.

[@anyagodwin5197]

Lois thank you so much for sharing your process here.
It’s every bit as helpful as watching your demonstrations.
I am struggling a bit with abstracting from reality even though it is something I so enjoyed to do. I also really appreciate the fabulous music so I could watch it while relaxing and taking it all and thank you very much. Your end result is certainly beautiful in my eyes.

What mix do u use for that lovely grey above the rocks Lois.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks, whatever was on my palette, I don’t remember I’m afraid 😊

[@judithpeck5732]

What is the scraper you used to spread some of the paint in your demo? It looked a little like a credit card?❤

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

It was a store card, so just the same as a credit card!

[@jacquipexton]

Can’t see anything

[@recreepy]

I'm running out of ways to say "amazing."
