This is my submission for Watercolor Wednesday, a critique group for watercolor artists focusing on children’s illustration.

The group blog is now a year old and has opened membership requests again. If you are a watercolor artist doing children’s illustration, we’d love to have you join.

Below I am posting the rules from the site:

To JOIN Watercolor Wednesdays, post your email and a link to your art blog or art web site as a comment on this site. We’ll visit your site and let you know by email if you’ve been accepted to Watercolor Wednesdays.
Please read the rules for this site:
(1) Watercolor Wednesdays is ONLY for children’s book illustrators or those who are seriously working toward becoming a children’s book illustrator.
(2) Watercolor Wednesdays accepts ONLY watercolor illustrations. Ink pen, pencil, and/or color pencil may also be a part of the illustration, but the dominate medium should be watercolor or water-based medium.
(3) Each month, Watercolor Wednesdays provides a series of weekly prompts for its membership to illustrate.
(4) Watercolor Wednesdays will not accept any inappropriate illustrations. All illustrations should be appropriate for children ages 1 through 10.
(5) Artwork posted on Watercolor Wednesdays must be the work of the artist posting.
(6) A monthly “winner” will be determined and posted in the banner/heading area of the site.
