This weekend, my book came in the mail... I've been excited to have a guide to getting back into the creative process with watercolors. This is a wonderful book for exploring the various ways you can use watercolors to paint images, find exciting textures, and mix it up with other media! You might want to have an artist's board and some painter's tape to start. |
A process called dripping and blowing |
Detail from bottom of "dripping and blowing" experiment |
Another detail from same project |
Two halves of "ochre color study" |
As you can see, I had a lot of fun, and created some interesting color studies! I did some drawing in the last one, of a leaf, a seashell and a quail figurine. I didn't show the whole painting because I felt it wasn't quite balanced right. But I liked some of the details.
I have to take Jimmy Boo into the vet this morning, so this is going to be a short post today! Wish us luck... only think good things!
I hope you're having a great day! xox
