So I came home today thinking I would paint something really pretty with buildings and water and boats. Well, I thought wrong. I did end up painting buildings, water, and boats but it certainly doesn't look very pretty so far.. Yes, this watercolor painting is in progress but right now it's in its "yucky" stage. I thought I'd give a little "sneak peek". The water looks like dirty yellow muck! I came up with this from the top of my head.. And I have to keep in mind that I'm really pretty much a beginner watercolor-er with failure skills. But I thought too highly of myself today and thought I was capable of painting two very hard things- buildings and water! Hm, but you never know how this will turn out later when I add the shadows, darks, and details. But I'm tired, a slow painter, and lazy so I won't be finishing until probably tomorrow. I will surely update the painting though.. Good or bad.. I've already posted the "sneak peek" so why not post the final result?
Hi B Cat,
ReplyDeleteLovely to meet you and thank you for your kind words about my post!:)
I feel if you have a growing passion for art that is all that matters... Just follow your heart with your creativity. That is what I do and paint for myself and not to please others!;)
Your painting is a great start... I am not just saying that, either!
I like the perspective and the light washes. I will come back for a second visit, to see if you have completed the picture.
I am now following you...
Have a lovely weekend too.;)
Best wishes.
Jo May.
