Shaukia Iftikhar's watercolor learning experience:
Second part of this class was water coloring with two colors. It was so much fun to do this part of the class, because it was my first time to see how two colors can mix in to each other and form many lighter colors out of this. I was surprise to see how beautiful it become when one darker color slide in to lighter color. By doing the two color painting I realized the more color we add to the painting the more beautiful painting becomes. This part of the class really makes me think about painting seriously. The more painting I do in this class the more interesting it gets. My self confidence on painting is building and now I think I can do it. I will say we can not find any better way to find relaxing then painting, especially water color; in which we can turned around and change any thing in the painting just by washing it away. Thanks you very much.
