ONLINE CARD CLASSES WATERCOLOR DAY 9

Thursday, May 15, 2014

                                             

I used to draw a lot as a child and young adult but didn't have much time as an adult so like anything you don't practice your ability wanes.  I rarely draw anymore so today's class was a little intimidating. I loved Kristina's card and wanted to do something colorful and immediately thought of birds. Right? What is more colorful than a parrot or a toucan.  Here is my less than successful attempt.  Problems:  Getting bright colors and still having a "watercolor" look; how to get straight lines and still look loose and free flowing; getting a multi-color layered look for a solid color image.  So while I didn't like the finished result, I thought I would post anyway in case anyone else is having these problems.  I used a combo of the Koi watercolors and the Twinkling H20's, Lawn Fawn Milo's ABC's.
