First Waterolors

I've admired the "mugs", charcoal portraits, that John Singer Sargent did.  But I never attempted one as charcoal has a scratchy blackboard screeching effect on me.  However, as I learned about watercolor and the process of lifting, I saw the similarities of charcoal and watercolor.  Both are easy to erase in certain circumstances.  And watercolor doesn't ever sound like chalk on a blackboard.  So here are my first attempts in watercolor.  It will take a few tries to figure out how the stuff works.
