Other than my inexperience, perhaps my greatest hesitation when first working on this piece was the very loose feel of watercolor. As I stated before, I am used to using pens and pencils; tow mediums which are tight and controlled. The switch to watercolors was a drastic difference as the brush and free flowing movement of the painting took some getting used to... Continue my watercolor learning experience

This piece is done in a very loose, flowing, more organic style than I am used to. My usual method of painting involves me heavily layering watercolor paint with small amounts of water, in an almost acrylic kind of style. This drawing on the other hand was done extremely loosely, using a small amount of paint and more water... Continue my watercolor learning experience

My first experience with water colors happened, as far as I remember, around third grade in a high-school, me being about ten years old. Remember we were taught to draw natural-looking green apples with juicy red sides. That was the only experience until now, when I am already 21 years old. I have always been persuaded that water colors are one of the most... Continue my watercolor learning experience

I'd love to describe my experience about one of my recent works, specifically - the drawing of a cozy restaurant with bright yellow walls and blue wooden decoration. The idea of the painting came from the photo image, which I randomly found in the travel magazine. Despite the colors were more mild and brownish, I fell in love with the composition...

Lucky for me my instructor is one of the best professors I have had. With his patience and passion for his work, he helps me and my classmates to understand and learn this beautiful art...

We have learned about basic techniques with the use of primary colors, we have drawn from observation as well as how to manipulate value, tone, and color... Continue my watercolor learning experience

Using watercolor for the first time since pre-school has really changed my opinion on it. I had always viewed the paints as soft with a singular emotion, but I had realized that you can obtain a whole spectrum of emotion, what I did get done had presented watercolors challenge...

The first full color painting I choose to do was a portrait of “The Predator” from said movie. For the sake of minimalism (out of habit), I had only used a few colors to distinguish the creature from the tree and the background. It proved to be a bit of a challenge trying to bring out the details of the predator, while making sure it didn’t blend in with the background and... Continue my watercolor learning experience

My first experience water coloring could not have been better. I learned that all colors originated from three main simple colors yellow, red and blue. I found a new sense of enjoyment for coloring. I was actually having fun and when it was time to clean up I found myself feeling sad. It reminded me of all the times I declared that it was time to clean up and my three year old would pout and cry... Continue my watercolor learning experience
