or went to school for art you would always be better than me because of your talent.
Except for this book I read, "Drawing on the right side of the brain" I read that and did all the assignments and I actually got fairly good at drawing - I mean I went from stick figures to being able to draw a gorilla that actually looked like a gorilla.
for almost a year and I’ve still got a long way to go.
Thank you!
Well done!
I have days where my water consistency is right on.
You can’t have it to wet or to dry. It’s tricky and there are all sorts of crazy things I do.
If I get it to wet I gray a q-tip and go right to the area.
Then start again after I let it dry a little so it don’t bleed.
Patience is the key. Just go slow.
I watch lots of tutorials for begininners. You also have to have good paper (that’s a big learning curve).
Buy the Arches as it’s so much easier to control the amount of water to paint ratio.
The paint flows most times by itself.
Give it a try.
Cheap paper just never works well with watercolor.
Arches Cold pressed

Let’s hope one day I post a cat or a dog of equal
accolades!
Now that would make me very happy.
It’s fun posting here whether I think it’s good or not.
Art is like food it brings people together!
Hope it made you smile.
I give most of my stuff away that I paint.
It all takes time. Just watching the tutorials.
Good thing I don’t sleep much or I’d be moving even slower!
nice compliment.
I’ll post this over at my group and I’m lucky if I get 5 likes.
But there are some pretty advanced painters.
I don’t know why they call it beginners group.
I’m working the water
friends.
