Path to the Pond
I was challenged by an artist friend to do the #30x30DirectWatercolor challenge, and I blindly accepted - looking up the details later! With only the knowledge that there is no drawing, only direct painting, I jump in! Choosing my path to the pond as my subject, I painted. Oh how I long for my ink! I only used ink to sign and edge, trying to make the watercolor do the rest. With a few attempts I am beginning to remember how little I liked watercolor most of my life. I only really got into it when I started batiks and later with ink! I had forgotten that! I wonder if 30 days can change my mind.....! Painting number 2703 in 2703 days.

I never felt comfortable exclusively with watercolor either, but you have a way of making it work. Ink gives your work definition, but I don’t miss it in this one. Lovely!

ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! I love pathways. One of my favourite themes for painting.
ReplyDeletethis is so soft and lovely. I always had a love/hate relationship with watercolors but some online classes got me to love it. I enjoy the abstract style the most. happy PPF!
