A painting

I have been collecting watercolour supplies for the last, oh, I don't know, 7 years or so. This last semester...I have finally gone to school in order to make me finally start doing watercolours..and apparently, doing quite ok, though I don't understand why, really. My teacher says A++. The one above is called "Kurdt" the one below is called "Pretty day in Daggett." I have others, but I'm not so happy with how they turned out. Oh well.
