water color landscapes

I spent a while at a secluded spot on a small beach and did a quick water color. I really don't know how to use water colors at all, but I actually like the way this came out. The only thing that disappoints me is that the darks in the foreground totally disappeared when it dried.  

I did this landscape with Anna. One of my favorite spots close to the house. We lost light REALLY fast, so everything got a little confusing near the end and I had to bring in the ink to define things. I'm not totally unhappy with this one, but I had higher hopes for it when I began. I also should have gone much much darker in the foreground because that shadow mass was huge. Oh well. I still enjoy the composition.
