The Golden Gate, seen from a coastal bluff, filled with brambles and white blossoms, on San Francisco's Lands End Trail in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. A sharp tidal line marks the division between green Bay water and the blue ocean. The Golden Gate Bridge is seen a few miles away to the east. In the sky, puffy clouds reflect the ocean light.

A cherry tree in bloom stands on the sidewalk in front of an ornate, green, Victorian cottage on a steep hill in this watercolor painting. It's flanked by similar houses uphill to the righanx downhill to the left. Behind the house, against a blue sky with partial clouds, stands a tall acacia tree -- behind which is a bit of the San Francisco skyline.

Ans thaNks, not thabks -- that one always gets me.

Dunno, not a parent, that line just came to me.

Thabks so very much!! I'd say basse on my experience thus far success flies not so much in controlling the watercolors but in providing the best parameters for them to do what they're going to do. Kind of like parenting?
