The painting is nearly finished now, still more lettering to do, maybe add a dog to accompany the Obamas (as a number of visitors pointed out to me...."you must have the dog too!"). I removed all the masking and freshened up the trees, adding more foliage and blossoms, and I put more color into the sky. I also pulled out my white gauche (white opaque watercolor) to brighten up a few places. There is always a problem in knowing when to stop...by painting too much one runs the risk of overworking the painting, so I'm going very slowly now.
