                        @bdyanne I think we all feel discouraged at times. It's part of the growing process 🙂 This is a cute idea. I remember walking in the rain and looking down at th epuddles and feeling liek I was looking into another world 🙂 That's what this makes me think of.

                                    @late2theparty Very nice. I like the sparkle on the ring, the gloss of the pearl bracelet, the reflection in the glass, the expression of the little guys ... so many details.

                                      @artwithashley Nice vertical take on the subject. Love the bubbles, including the popped ones. Is this done in watercolor and digital?

                                            @gary-wilkinson -Thanks!! I knew I wanted to do a long vertical representation but I didn't think about a phone case. That would be so fun! (PS. I'm loving watching your process for this month's contest. I can't wait to see your final!)

                                            @josegalue25 - Thank you so much! Love the drippy water and deep colors in your piece.

                                            @maureen - Hey thanks! It was done digitally with watercolor overlays. Those pesky bubbles were a bit tricky to figure out, so thanks for the comment!!
