Paint and sip at #MusePaintbar in Somerville. #BeginnerArtist #acrylic #painting
They even come with both light and dark swatch cards!
Yeah, they're metallic colors made for use on both light and dark papers! All of the iridescent and metallic watercolors work on dark, I find.
Played a bit with my new #Arteza #watercolor set.

Got some #Baohong paper, and am trying it out before busting into the #Arches. The silhouette piece is on student grade cold pressed, and the cabin is on rough. Mostly #Artistro #watercolor with some #Holbein #gouache

Loki enjoys the fancy light.
Good Morning BlueSky! Needed a break from the horrors so here is a spring hummingborb on this cold January morning. Be good to yourselves.

Botanical doodle, iridescent #watercolor on black.
It only works because it's metallic. I have no idea what regular watercolor would do!
Did a couple of little 4x4 canvases today based on earlier pieces I've done, and canvas is so different that everything was much harder.
Black is #watercolor and the messy birches are #gouache
Doodles.

So, I made some simple holiday cards for my coworkers with a mix of #watercolor and #gouache this afternoon... then made a cat painting for my own gratification, because #cats are awesome.
Also: I just tried out my new Silver Black Velvet round, and I'm in absolute love with how it handles!

They're two separate pans. The lighter one is dreamers gold, and the more coppery one is fairytale gold. Beam does a bunch of different metallics.
Got some metallic hues from #BeamPaints and enjoyed using them. Very pigmented & sparkly!

Do it! It's so satisfying to watch the pigment bloom as you put it down!
Black gouache over watercolor. It's based on some YouTube tutorial I watched awhile back and remembered. Wet on wet has this tie-dye quality that is really fun!

Sepia-toned landscape. Not a total success, but I'm still learning how to layer.

Playing with watercolor again in a very unserious way. It's very different from gouache, for sure!
Today's experiments with #watercolor
#TraditionalArt #painting #aquarelle #BeginnerArtist
So I tried watercolor for the first time. It's little half pan cakes, and I have basically no idea what I'm doing. Behold, my wonky, skinny lemon!

It's a twofer. I tried approaching the same basic idea with the same few colors, but different techniques and brushes.

Go on, Glen. Sometimes we all need a little treat!

When in doubt, tree silhouette. It's my go-to when I'm stumped on what I want to paint.

I'm planning on moving to actual artist's tape when I get through the washi tape I bought. Water does get under it!
