I'm playing around with watercolor too. Robert spoiled me some time ago with a Cotman half pan field box. It's amazing and I just love this paint. There's just something about watercolor.... I can get light into my paintings that I have not been able to do with acrylic. This image glows and it pleases me to no end.
I saw something like this in a book at Costco this weekend and pulled out my paint as soon as I got home. I was reading online that a lot of people work from photos like I did with the birds. I usually don't but am going to start giving that a serious try. Bob takes amazing nature photography and I'm going to start doing images from his birds, landscapes and seascapes. Wish me luck!
Thanks for looking!
This is, in fact, why I love watercolor.
ReplyDeleteTee, I LOVE everything you do.. you are so talented in so many mediums. When will you get your own TV show.. I'm sure you'd be a real hit.. perhaps an Emmy in your future!!
ReplyDeleteROFL That's me... the next Carol Duval! Joey said Martha, but pishhh, Carol's show had more about how YOU can do it than "look what I can do". I like that better!
ReplyDeleteHow about Rachel Ray in the art medium world instead of the kitchen. That way you can have famous guests on and show them how you do it so they can go home and try it for themselves. Ok , let's see, who would be your first guest, not in the art world, in the like famous on TV, Music, Movies world. Ok, you can have a famous artist on the same show. Mix it up as one would say.
