More Experimentation

Painting by Vicky Christensen, 12 X 16 inch watercolor
This is another abstract experiment with watercolor, using a wet into wet underpainting and finishing off with layers of glazes. I wanted to do something different from the branches and berries, but once I did the underpainting I was kind of stumped as to what to do. Above is the result. I'm not sure what it is, and I am debating if I should change the orientation by rotating it a quarter turn. I think it might have been more interesting if I had varied the vertical placement of the shapes. I do like the colors.

And here is the underpainting.
