Day 25: Duck Figurine

Day 25 of the 2018 Direct Watercolor Challenge: a duck figurine. I intended to paint the whole duck but I ran out of room on my 5×7-inch watercolor paper. That’s another thing that happens when you don’t sketch the subject first. Oh, well, better luck next time.

Day 24: Abstract Tree

Day 24 of the 2018 Direct Watercolor Challenge: an abstract tree. I decided to try something abstract, as my paintings are somewhat wonky when I don’t have an underlying sketch. This way I can say the result is exactly what I intended, no matter how it turns out.
