Another day another experiment. I have been trying out my water colouring skills and it has been a very mixed bag of results. The first thing I tried was a simple landscape and I very quickly discovered that there was no such thing as a ‘simple’ landscape – especially when you have never done anything like that before. This morning I tried again and had a similar result. I then tried to work on something I was more familiar with, portraiture and suddenly things started to work out a bit better. This is not surprising for two reasons. Firstly, I have been practicing drawing faces for a few weeks and secondly, I discovered new techniques to help control of the paint. I am rather pleased with what I have discovered so far but there is long, long way to go before I would even admit that I knew what i was doing let alone any good. Still you have start somewhere.
