I have less than two weeks left to take in my art works into an exhibitions. I have two shows to enter at the end of the month. And take-in day of the shows are just one day apart. I have been painting new watercolors for the last five weeks or so, and I am not happy about what I have down so far. Hard part of watercolor is, if I made unhappy result I have to do it all over again. There is no way I can fix the watercolor painting. I feel watercolor is like a Japanese calligraphy. I paint same material hundred times and choose the best one from them. I finished five paintings so far, but I want paint some more. I still have enough time for that.

Dear Osamu,
Lovely and heart warming work. I hope a good success for the upcoming exhibition.
Kind regards, Sadami
Hi Sadami
Thank you for the nice comment. In this watercolor, I painted one of my friends and his two dogs. Every time I visited your blog I wanted to sketch like you do. But I don't paint people that often, so, when I tried it, it was so stiff. I need a lot of practice.
Osamu, I discovered your blog not long ago and it is a pleasure to see your watercolors. I find this one formidable.
The subject pleases me a lot.
The colors of the bottom are blazing and the sensational light.
I wish you of the success in your projects to come!
Kind regards.
Hi Olivia
I don't paint figure often. But after I painted this I changed my mine, I should paint it more.
Wow! This is a great painting that shows the values so well. And I love the story: the men and his friend. One is resting and another one is protecting his rest. Super Job Osamu!
Thank you,
Irina
