When I first started my journey in watercolor, I came across this amazing lady on youtube. Nan Rae not only has this beautiful spirit about her, but has a wealth of knowledge about her subjects. Everything is painted spontaneously, yet deliberate. I find most of her work comes together like a symphony, each element playing its part to tell the story. I can’t help but to hear background music in my head when viewing her work ☺️
