Jackie @30pics4jackiesdiamond encouraged me to try painting a watercolor with her and casablanca. They posted their pictures yesterday https://365project.org/30pics4jackiesdiamond/extra-special-o/2021-01-23 (with a link to casablanca) and I bought supplies today to do the same. I am used to working with oils so there is a learning curve for me with watercolors. It could be worse but it could be better too! Thanks for the challenge Jackie!
this looks good. aces! mine looks like something else.🥴 it's hard to paint trees. i prefer sky and sea. oh, well, i'll mull it over and see if i have enough courage to post mine.
The sign of a true artist... the medium doesn’t matter... it’s all in the eye! Oil, watercolor, camera... your skills in composition, light, perspective are all there! Well done. 💞
@darylo i’m glad you like it and I’m glad the trees remind you of birches. That is what they are supposed to be so I must be doing something right! @summerfield I feel certain your skills are much better than mine and you are being too hard on yourself. I hope you post yours so I can see it. @nicolecampbell you are very generous with your praise and I thank you for that. @randystreat thank you so much Kathy. It is fun to have somebody to compare and share with. @lesip girl! You are far too nice to say that. @jaybutterfield I really appreciate that, Jay. And you are correct about everybody’s art @olivetreeann I doubt that and thank you so much. @shutterbug49 thanks, Debbie! It helps to have the encouragement from others. @louannwarren ah Lou Ann, that is so nice of you to say. @dutchothotmailcom seriously? Such enthusiasm! Thanks bunches Esther. @madamelucy that’s really very nice of you to say, Terri. @cjphoto wow! I really appreciate that Chris. @marilyn awww. You are always so kind with your support and praise❣️ @ludwigsdiana that’s really nice of you Diana but I feel you could fall of the tutorial just as well as I could. @koalagardens what a really nice thing to say Katrina. Thank you so much. @linnypinny that means a lot to me,Lin. Thanks @larrysphotos thanks for taking the time to review and comment Larry. @geertje I really appreciate your opinion,Geertje. Thank you. @maggiemae thank you Maggiemae. That’s a perfect assessment and something I struggle with. @tunia how nice of you to say Tunia. I do find a connection. @serendypyty thank you, Cazzi. It is interesting to see how different our finished painting is when we all watched the same tutorial
No really- I could hold my own with charcoal, pencil, pen and ink but I was not really good at oils, acrylic or watercolor. I was always more of a sketcher than a painter.
@eudora I really appreciate how kind your comments are Diane. Thank you so much! @30pics4jackiesdiamond I think fabulous is a stretch but thank you. Yes I think watercolors are difficult too but I agree it is also fun trying.
Well, if it were perfect, there would be nowhere to go from here, right? Learn from the wrongs and rejoice the rights.
It would be so interesting to see a version in oils :D No, this is not a challenge, but we have seen watercolour and acrylic. It would also be interesting to see a drawn version.
