Day 2 - Watercolor

My second attempts at watercolors! The beautiful painting in the bottom left was a demo done by my watercolor teacher missngomer! I think judging by my second try in the top right im getting better! Yay, what a fun medium.

Watercolor xp +10

I've started learning how to use watercolor! It's a really fun medium that i used to regard as flimsy, drippy, and frustrating. However, someone very close to me showed me that watercolor is pretty cool, you just have to know how to use it! (i was also using cheap brushes and paints when i watercolored in my youth.)

Below (i think, im using the app for the first time and im still getting the hang of it.) is my test sheet to test brushes pigments and mixings. Essentially i was acclamating myself with the medium. Then i painted a leaf and started over cause i didnt like the color i mixed. Getting blends on the paper is tough but i think that's what i want to work on next! Watercolor-ho!
