Leslie,
I think I won't be posting any progress, since (my) watercolors look so bad in the unfinished state, and people would feel compelled to waste perfectly good critique on stuff that will get fixed anyway. I do hope you'll comment when I do post though; There will be plenty I missed, no doubt.
Cynthia,
It seems none of the thumbnails are linked to their respective paintings, which is OK. But many of the paintings displayed are not available by clicking through to the artist's sites either, such as the one by Margaret Sargent. Still it is a good resource, as I discovered a number of couples not listed in the couples page. Thank you for the link!
Jim,
Thank you for your encouraging comment, although none of that could have happened without the excellent advice from several others.
Thank you also for your suggestions on the multiple thumbs. I know I must be improving, since I actually noticed those, and decided not to include them.
Fortunately, the whites of the eyes show more accurately in my reference. The reflections in their eyes are so clear I can see some fleas having a domestic dispute on a dog that's barking in the neighbor's window. (You do believe this, don't you?) Had this been taken with your D5 rather than my D7, those fleas might have been mistaken for mosquitoes, and all our careers would be on hold while we figured out what mosquitoes were doing on a dog in Canada in January. Boy, I'm glad we dodged that one.
I appreciate all your comments,
