Well here is my first water color forrest!
What a lesson this 'Craftsy class' was! What did I learn? So much!
First of all - I'm not into water color. lol
Well - I have not used it often and I really can learn quite a bit about it. I know already - I prefer acrylic paint - I find water color restricting - but I have to say this instructor made me quickly feel at ease as he related many comments along the line - not to worry - also how to fix, a few tricks again - I would have had to learn the hard way - saved me time and frustration!
I really enjoyed the liquid masking fluid! Instantly - my mind has a new project in mind- butterflies! Im excited to try what Im thinking- but as for turning into a landscape painter - in water color - I doubt it's going to happen anytime soon- I will say I would certainly try!
I also can't wait to use my new found technique in the garden this summer!
I painted 2 forrest scenes - only because I poured too mush masking fluid in the container- lol so I painted the one in 'Blues' in a fraction of the time!! Not yet complete- I'm working on it next, it is on my desk. I was busy today, I challenged myself to paint from my new animal book! You will have to wait and see.
Have a look at Craftsy! I can say - if you did this class step by step - I am confident your work would look like mine - even better! I am so impatient, others will have even better results. The next time you want to learn something - consider it- it might just start a new career or better yet- form of meditation and relaxation!
Have I signed up for another class - you bet - lol
Norm is o.k. with it - you see I don't shoe shop, clothes- who cares.. diamonds- been there done that! Sign me up for art classes! He is saving quite a bit of money - until I give him the list of supplies I need- ;) I actually have most - from years of always crafting.
You will see next - Acrylic landscape painting! Stay tooned!

Have faith! Paint a water color today! <><
