work-in-progress by Linda T Snider-Ward, Louisiana artist

detail of a larger watercolor work-in-progress. I find that I have to let my work "rest" while I work on another piece. I'm pretty excited about this one, but I want it to "rest" a bit until I return to it.  More of my artwork can be seen on my website and my Etsy shop

Plein Air Ponies is a small (8" x 8") watercolor done on site a few weeks ago. The horses, of course, moved constantly, so it was difficult to get a good drawing of them, but it was fun.
