Celestial Light - Watercolor painting, from sketch to finished artwork

in #art8 years ago

I gave watercolors another try after putting it off for awhile. It's easier just sticking to what I know - markers...

I'm still a beginner, so I know it's technically not that good, but it came out with the vibe I wanted so I'm happy with it. I hope you guys like it as well. Let me know what you think. ^_^

The drawing process

Materials used for making this drawing:

  • Canson watercolor paper
  • Schminke Horadam watercolors
  • White gel pen
  • White gouache

Awesome concept :) What was the idea behind the painting?

Thank you! It sort of just popped into my head, I wanted to paint something that represented life, the universe and it's weirdness.

I love the painting :) I can only advise based on my experience that watercolour painting is all about layers :) try applying few thin layers first and work on that, be careful with the thickness of the paper though.
AND OH MY GOD YOUR DOG! <3

Thank you for the advice and positive feedback :D And yes, she is loves to cuddle as well, so I feel lucky to have her. ^_^

It looks nice, and I agree with milenamilak, first try with gentle layers, and also if you like to leave wight parts, you can use masking fluid. With aplaying it maybe it will be easier for the begining.

I don't have masking fluid, but I will try to get my hands on that ^_^ Thanks!

Love it! And Penny <3
