First Watercolor - Completed

This is not my first watercolor ever.... rather it is the first one in a long time.  It is also the first one of a subject from the Beer Parlour Project.  This is the side entrance to the Victoria Hotel in Bruderheim.  We visited it twice, in late 2023 and early 2024, for outings that we refer to as BP 9.0 and BP 9.1.
I took a little artistic license and colored the grass green.  In actual fact at the time of year that we visited, it was dead and brown.  Other than that, this painting is fairly realistic.
Over the next couple of years I intent to attempt a bunch more similar paintings of BP Project subjects.  Maybe if we do a gallery show at some point, a few of these can be included.  I've already started roughing out the next one, which will be of the Elk River Inn, from BP 3.0, in Hosmer.
