After receiving a lot of input on my water color, I am trying a new color that I like much better,  The thing that finally convinced me was watching some videos on YouTube where they used this color for the base coat and then added the clear resin on top.  It gave the water that greenish/brown color common in Midwest rivers and the top surface reflected the sky and surrounding giving it that blue cast that I like.

I painted my river base tonight and took these pictures while it was still wet.

It gives me a much more realistic base color and feel that I may be on the right track now.

Much better Art.  Once you add some rocks and stream side vegetation along with the "water", it will be tempting not to go fishing while running trains.  Great job once again.
