watercolor in Moleskine journal

This is for Michelle Burnett. I was wracking my brain for snapshot or postcard ideas from my past, and became so melancholy looking through old photos, I had to stop. Then I noticed some of the cutest kids I'd ever seen on Michelle's FB page. The apple really doesn't fall far.
Thanks to Chris Beck for suggesting I break out the watercolors again. I'd forgotten how fun watery washes can be. After the Claybord issues from the last post, it was doubly fun. Thanks for everyone's comments, advice and commiseration. (And thanks, Michelle, for having such cute kids!)

Like I wrote on the Moleskin blog, I adore and admire your talent with watercolors a medium I still find very challenging. Awesome job Liz!
Thanks so much, Sheila! I started out painting in watercolor. It is challenging, but so fun!
These are so wonderful, Liz. You are a master at watercolor and you have captured the innocence of childhood on their sweet faces beautifully.
You are so gifted, Liz. These look fresh as spring.
These are about the cutest kids I have ever seen, your talent is boundless!
Hi Liz,
These are wonderful portraits, so full of life! I think she'll love this entry, no doubt!
Great work with watercolors btw...
Big hugs,
Carolina
Great watercolors of wonderful subjects.
Wonderful Portraits Liz. I am sure whatever medium you turn to. Your work will always be stunning. Love these two oirtraits. so cute.
Liz, thanks so much for painting my children! {Back when they were young and cute, instead of moody teenagers :)}
I really admire your skill at watercolors. They give the painting such a beautiful glow.
delightful Liz! i admire anyone who can handle watercolours: they dry so quickly and need more sense than i have:))
I like what Karine said, "...fresh as spring." A perfect description for some excellent work.

Your use of watercolors just amazing.
I would love to see more of your paintings.
Vous avez peint avec beaucoup de talent et de sensibilité ces peintures... Belle harmonie de couleurs.
wow, liz, you're as great at watercolor as you are in oils and acrylics. Bet Michelle is thrilled.
Beautiful! And those kids look amazingly cute and like they were on their way to the first day of school. Love the happy colors and grooviness of them both!
Liz, Lucky Michelle to receive these precious portraits in her moleskin. Your talent is A+ in any medium you tackle.
Wow!! Michelle is one lucky girl!! What beautiful children. Your paintings are so wonderful!!
great job Liz. Wonderful expressions.
Thanks for your message on my art blog. Your wishing that you could send warmer weather must be working as we now have had 2 days of sunshine and warmer temps. Clear up to low 60's today. Feels great. Snow has even melted around town.
Really lovely Liz! Your watercolour work is terrific!
You should get out the watercolours more often, these little portraits are wonderful! Watercolour is a unforgiving medium and you are a master of them.
Such wonderful portraits, Liz. I am very fond of people done in watercolor.
Oh Liz, what an inspiration you are. These paintings of the children are brilliant. All the best to you.
Wonderful Liz, the colours you chose bring a real happiness and element of fun to these children)
A beautiful job! The watercolors sing. Great little people...I'm sure Michelle will treasure this in person!
Liz, these are wonderful as is "Cat Nap", which I now have temporarily in my possession. Photos just don't do your art justice.
