This was my first 22 x 30 watercolor. I think it turned out pretty well considering it was my first time working on such a large piece of paper. It was a little intimidating at first, but I used large brushes so it proportionally didn't take much longer than one of my smaller ones. I did add more detail than usual to make it more interesting since there was a larger space to keep the viewer's interest. Thanks to Terry, I did the trick on the lighthouse where I put down color and then used plain water to spread the color out, creating a soft shadow. The fan brush was also helpful in the grassy areas.
