You may have noticed I have taken a bit of a hiatus from art and blogging. It’s been like six months since my last blog post! I went on an epic two month overseas holiday. I did have the best intentions to draw and update my social media everyday ha ha… but… anyway I do have a really good tan…
Anyone whose followed my blog for a little while will know that watercolour is my nemesis. I have a bit of a love-hate relationship going with it. So I’ve decided to commit to watercolour based mixed media for a while and see if I can get more comfortable with it.
Here are the results of my first four attempts. A bit of a mixed bag! The first one I did was my favourite by far. I think because it was “just an experiment” I was much looser and relaxed with it. I put a bit of pressure on myself for the next couple (and used the GOOD paper) and I think as a result I was a bit more uptight which shows in the end result. The last one I disliked so much I ended up giving up on it completely!
