Yes. I think all my mea culpas on this one are in the drawing not the painting.Quite a good job; this could have easily been overworked, but you controlled that beautifully. Watercolour can be so unforgiving- congrats on not having to beg "mea culpa" on this one- it works.
Exactly how I felt before trying this. Actually learning to blend on the palette was fun and all the swatching made the actual painting almost incidental.Gorgeous! I'm not brave enough to tackle a wc portrait in so many colours ... maybe I can start with a monochrome/one colour portrait ...
Thank you Enyaw. Appreciate the support.Very nice Joe
The learning and studying and planning and prep was so helpful, hey?Exactly how I felt before trying this. Actually learning to blend on the palette was fun and all the swatching made the actual painting almost incidental.
Yes. Learning to plan and prep. That is novel for me. I also like creating colors on the palette. Mixing and blending to find the color you want I find to be fun. Still learning the right amounts of water.The learning and studying and planning and prep was so helpful, hey?
