For this transparent watercolor I used Winsor Newton watercolor paint on 140# arches water color paper.  It was started with an under-painting of yellows, reds, blues, greens. I painted negatively around the fish and seaweed with blues and greens.  The fish just jumped out and a several were painted with a few little details.

Mountain Reflections watercolor painting by Texas artist Linda Bein

"Mountain Reflections"
transparent watercolor
15"x22"
$395

I painted this several years ago and never blogged it because I never photographed it.  Finally, it is in inventory, and available for viewing.    It is a favorite of many students.  When my younger students have a class that they can pick their subject matter, I find them looking up to these mountains.  Many students and their parents recognize the Grand Tetons in the background.  It is a beautiful place on the earth.
