If it does there’s also video which I’ll upload later.
Still life Watercolor Color Matching Study
Here is the original photo.
And finally I made a video of the painting process for those interested.
Boats Watercolor Painting
Ahhhh – who doesn’t like painting boats? A blissful afternoon doing this one. And all that color! Super pleased with this.
Bouquet of Red Roses Watercolor Painting
The subject was roses today and although the result is just a sketch I’ve finally got back into the swing of things.
Value Study Landscape
I’m continuing with value studies from my lucky dip photo bag. This one I applied my simplifying technique of stripping everything back to a few value shapes and finally a single detail shape with the bulk of the contrast. This detail shape can be a pretty odd shape and, in this scene, includes the foreground trees as well as the bushes on the other side of the bank. They’re contiguous in 2d if not in 3d.
I think this worked out quite well. It’s not meant to be a finished painting but I think I could work this one up if I wanted to. Onwards!
