  • I was thinking it looks like sketching on her face in preparation for tattoos.

  • I like it. It's interesting how you have the colors mixed and overlapping.

  • I'm doing multiple paintings and drawings of this tree. A version with snow is on my list. Thanks

  • Haha. I guess I need to read the title rather than rattle off a post.

  • I like your watercolors. I'm tinkering and learning. I like the fine details and wonder about the lines on the wing and on to of the head and the beak. Do you use a finer pointed brush or is there some specific technique? I've been using a slightly pointier brush and watercolor straight from the tube, no water to dilute or almost no water.

  • I'm not done with it. Thinking of adding more branches or does what I have represent the tree adequately?

  • I just noticed the dim lighting on this. I'll have to turn on more lights next time.

  • Funny the top part of the tree with background sky looks lighter and spotty in this picture, but not on the actual paper!

  • i have no idea what i'm doing

    Jump

  • I'm trying out Krita, too (Linux version, I didn't think it's that different). I'm tinkering trying different things, drawing lines, filling in between lines I've drawn, making shades and textures. Today I tried some watercolor brushes to make a sky and field, they don't look much like watercolor, though. I'm going to watch more videos on using Krita.

  • This is the same thing with a darkened shadow. I did this my accident in Krita, but I don't know how I did it.

  • Did you do the tree and branches first or the snow?

  • [Request/Help] Websites to browse, search, and find artists and art to buy from independent artists

    Jump

  • I've seen a lot at local (suburban) art fairs, usually in the summer, spring and fall. Even at some summer festivals they'll have a craft fair area and there is always someone selling their art.

  • I like the detail in the rocks, too. Comparing the closer area to the further show line gives it good perspective. I'm trying to figure that out myself. I think you did well.

  • Painting from College Class

  • Only valuable because originally framed by my wife! 🤣

  • I think some of that is the photo I took, so slighter than it looks, but I'll make that a little darker so that doesn't show. I was trying to make it show different than other areas, and try to make it look more distant above the fog. I had the nearest fog darker before so that added a little more contrast. Thanks for the tip, I'll see what I can do.
