It looks great Nancy, some wonderful colours in there, and the water is so beautifully transparent it would be a shame to overload it. Sounds like a tall order from your client, good luck !

Beautiful effect with the washes Nancy, especially the blue running into the green.

Watercolor, height 22 by 17 inches. Work in progress, almost done. A commissioned piece of a river in the state of Oregon, called the Umpqua. The intense greens & turquoises a request of client, as this river is known for these colors.....Also a very closed in river in many parts (from photos, I have not beenthere in person), I decided to open it up and have the larger foreground for color effect .... the mist in the mountains also a request and a springtime feel to the time of day. The center has become a bit too straight so I am working on angling the left reflections back in a v pattern.....we'll see....so much paint on it already!

Nancy Farrar Coughlin

I have recently escaped to the coast, to Grays Harbor in the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. I love nature, being outdoors, the ocean as well as the woods. I am grateful for life, after a ruptured appendix and a year of healing recently; I am treasuring every day! It was time to move…
