I added a the pieces of a photograph to this piece. I was afraid that the watercolor would not stay on the photo paper at all, but much to my delight, though the paint beaded up, it eventually soaked in a dried in an interesting speckled pattern. In addition, this watercolor is another cathartic painting. It is the pieces of a broken photograph becoming something new.

This piece is really strong because of the repetition of lines as well as the contrast of the lines and the beaded up paint on the photo paper. It is also nice to see the contrast of hard and soft edges. Nicely done!
