I have a small practice artwork to share with you today. I have been spending time on the craft of water colors lately.
Instead of painting too much details, I am focussing on the texture of water colors (wet on wet technique) to take care of the details and background. I need to do even more practice to get comfortable with it. Meanwhile, enjoy this small piece of work produced in the process, based on tutorials.
This a simple kind of silhouette painting against a white foggy background. Colors applied on the edges of the wet paper were spread to give a smooth blended texture everywhere, and then background and foreground are contrasted with lighter-deeper tones/trees to give a feel of distance.
I hope you are inspired to create simple works like these.
I will display some more practice works ! 😊 Until then,
~Keep smiling~ 🙂
Brilliant! The light looks amazing!

You actually wet the paper before painting?

Yes. The technique involves wetting the paper with brush. And when color is applied, the wet paper absorbs the color and spreads it in a hazy fashion.
