Last Flight of The Day 56cm x 33cm Saunders Waterford CP 425gsm |
The year has been filled with so many art challenges for me and having this blog has kept me on the path of always trying something new whether it be colour, texture, subject, paper, brushes or application. I hope you too have discovered "new to you" watercolour tips and techniques.
I share today a riverscape which even though I live on the edge of a beautiful river these types of works elude me and I think it is because I have not found my way of competing with the real beauty I see everyday.
Maybe this will be a 2016 challenge for me.
I was able to let loose with this painting as my art commitments for the year have all been met so it is now playing time with no pressure.
I have used a very limited palette of Indigo, Raw Sienna and Bloodstone Genuine.
Below shows how the graulating Bloodstone is ideal for mood and interest.
