Wow, thanks folks!  Such nice compliments!  You have really made my day!    

Caryl, this is the second time I have tried rocks with water and I really like doing it.  I go from photos I have taken and I do a value painting first.  Then I just paint the underwater rocks in as loose blobs and put on a number of layers of close, but different colours. and varying values.  Then I paint what you would probably call a glaze (watered down acrylic?) over it all.  Then I paint the dry rocks and finally I add the little highlights on the water.

Tammy... I am curious to know? when painting rocks or sand under water like Richard did with the recent challenge ... how do you tackle the under water part? I am completely ???? You have really captured that flowing water  and each rock has a different texture... really incredible. I have just noticed that it is acrylic... I thought it was pastel !

The problem with this is choosing the appropriate word.
Fantastic?
Brilliant?
Incredible?
I'll settle for AMAZING at present. Well done Tammy!
