New Medium Watercolors

Old news Family got me art supplies For my Birthday. Watercolors from one and art books another and canvases and more supplies.

One book had a good section on watercolor techniques the other facial expressions .  Lots of washes blobs and scribbles later I kinda like this.

These are my first 2.

9X12 90lbs cold press watercolor paper  Van Gogh watercolors .


I will just rotate what medium I will create in today. I like the spontaneity of watercolors its a break from other styles that  are laid out planed out.

Cardinal in the Storm

I saw a picture like this and I really liked it . I changed it cropped it made it snow .  If I knew where the original reference came from I would gladly credit to him or her for the good photograph.

I enjoyed this one  I really cant believe I didnt post this yet . It seems I did this January 14 or December 13. 



This was done with pastels on 9X12 Colorfix paper. I used some nupastels , Blick soft pastels, art spectrum, Sennelier, pastel pencils ,and some Schmincke.

A Glass of Candy

 Liquorice mix in a goblet.  I have been hesitant to draw these types of candies and  hesitant to try painting glass. So I what did I do? Take the easy way nope did glass and candy together. Allsorts is the name of the mix  I just did not think that was the name from when I was a kid.

The inspiration for this was from the image gallery from wetcanvas.  Images there are free to use for reference . Chia is the user who uploaded this reference .

I am happy with it .  I feel this was a success .
