Applying New Knowledge

First Attempts at applying workshop skills

So, I have a great subject with the early morning light striking an interesting sailboat just right. But as most artists know, controlling watercolor only comes with practice.

I like the colors in attempts #1 best, but I think the focal point is much better in #2.

What do you think?
