Sea shells on the sea shore

Bit late with this but at watercolour class this week we looked at tone.

This was great for me and I got some good practising at mixing colours. My biggest problem in previous weeks has been spending too long drawing items before painting so this weeks plan was to not draw it.

So, I painted some shells without drawing them first and to be honest I am pretty pleased with them!

Next week is half term so I will have to try and do some practising at home.

Back to college

Well my first watercolor class went reasonably well - even if I was late. I couldn't find the college (!) apparently I had followed an old sign and it has moved!

Anyway, i have decided to share my efforts each week - hopefully we'll see some progression :).

This week was still life fruit night and my best painting was my apple - not bad for a first attempt.




Apologies for it being the wrong way round I'm uploading from my phone and can't work out how to turn it!
