ribbon-cutting ceremony

today's watercolour prompt is 'ceremony'.

another image from the big clip art book.

i posted a couple of these watercolours on facebook yesterday and i promptly got a call from my sister asking the price for the dancing shoes painting. and then my bestie in san francisco wanted a painting of her ballroom dancing shoes. so after july, i will still be doing a few watercolours. then i can go back to acrylic.

Wow, the scissors feel so cold... real metallic scissors! Excellent reflections! Such great shades and variations in the ribbon!

Fantastic illustration for the word and the painting is so well done. Impressive skills to make watercolor have the depth you have captured here.

I really like the way you painted realistic light highlights on the ribbon and on the scissors.

[Esther Rosenberg]

Well done! I like the detils of the sharp scissors, the bright orangy-red ribbbon and the ribbon bits scattered about.
