Artist Loft pearlesence watercolors

picked them up at M's the other day and

just look how pretty they are.

I also have the regular watercolors by Artist Loft

though they look like they've seen better days.

These are almost too pretty to dip into.

Almost.............

 Didn't have a photo in mind but I love this paper

and decided the paints would look very pretty together.

Tossed some gesso on and then the paint. 

And I was right. Its pretty and pearly.

I used the pink, gold and green.

 I really love these paints.  

The colors rolled on pretty and easily.

 As I added layers I softened them with gesso and watercolors.

I also inked around the edges with vintage photo ink by ranger.

 And then back to the wayback box for a photo.

There were two.

However, I felt drawn to this one and it just works

with the embellishments.

Mrs. Schneider (Hilda) was great grandmom.

Mrs. Schneider was written on the back of the photo-nothing more.

I'm thinking someone other than family took the photo

and gave it to her or family.

I wish I knew more.

Studio Calico, Kaiser Kraft and my HOMEMADE TAG!!!

Woohooo another one down!
