I’ve picked up my brushes again and am attempting to learn more about watercolor painting. I signed up for an online class. (It was on sale for Black Friday!) First step: a color wheel. Now, I have other color wheels from other classes, but even so, I’m going to go through all the assignments.
I used Azo Yellow, Organic Vermillion, and French Ultramarine. My first attempt was just okay. I muddied up the green/blue mixture.
I tried it again with results that I liked better.
A few of the watercolor postcards I recently painted, then mailed.
I really like the name of this fish. It is the state fish of Hawai’i.
Throughout June I participated in the #30x30DirectWatercolor Challenge. I experimented quite a bit, so most of what I painted isn’t worth showing. But I got brave and painted Van Gogh’s Clogs. I actually got to see this painting at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston. Wonderful exhibit.
A sunflower in watercolor. My goal was to paint it in the Cubism style. How hard can it be? Apparently, pretty hard. This could be labeled modern, maybe, or abstract. But Cubism? Probably not.
