This is the first watercolor of tulips using the lessons I learned from the Reid workshop a couple of weeks ago. Mr Reid is a master of clean, fresh color and washy but not washed out paintings. He uses just the right amount of water in the brush, on the palette placed onto dry paper that can be prewet by the leading brush edge.

I would like to work on a vase of these while they are in bloom.

This is one of Charles Reid's watercolors recently shown on his Facebook page.
