Lazy Susan and Butterfly

Lazy Susan and Butterfly
Watercolor on paper, 6x4.5
I have been plein air painting for 9 years now, on a regular basis.  I first started in acrylics, and stayed with them for years.  About three years ago, I moved into using oils in the field - and have loved them.  They feel very natural for me.  Now, I have started with watercolors, and the question stands before me - do I compete now with this new, experimental medium?  They still feel so unnatural, but I get so many comments in the field when using them.  It is a bit scary to move into uncharted waters, but maybe I should give it a try.  Nothing ventured, nothing gained!  Painting number 613 in as many days.
