Hey hey #portfolioday

I'm Jess, a landscape watercolorist working in southern BC and the PNW. I'm open for commission work right now if anyone is looking for bespoke art, but soon will be closing down the list to focus on an upcoming gallery show.

Thank you! And yes, for some of it...but for the linework I use opaque white on the dry painting after the colors go in. Sometimes it takes a couple passes, but the effect is awesome.
