Practice, practice, practice

Thanks so much for the feedback, everyone. I was having a hard time with the acrylics and decided to go back to some foundational work. Seeing everyone's beautiful work with watercolor really has inspired me. Thanks, @Lee White for the notes. Yes, I really see the colors better on the chart. It's time I get serous and make a chart; that'll really help me make better choices as I'm working.

Were to begin. I didn't make deadline but decided to post here. I started out with pencil, then added watercolor. Then added acrylic on top. What a mess. LOL Messed around in Photoshop a tad but my skills are limited with it. So, this is all I've got today. Warning; I'm a work in progress!

Kind of all over the place. I feel like if I could just get the shapes and drawings consistent I could move forward. I absolutely love Kley, Daumier, Carter Goodrich, Peter de Seve, Arthur Rackham (and so many others). I'm having fun with the drawing; just putting it out there.

After much thought, I've decided I really need to invest in better materials. ...and to keep practicing, of course.

Really dig this Easter illustration. NICE Work!
-
@Suzy-Heitz Nice work. Using high quality paint and paper do make a difference. I like Arches paper and M. Graham paints. Quinacridone Gold is one of my favorite colors. I really like your Easter piece.

Personal project practice: Illustrated recipe.

@Suzy-Heitz That is really cool! I don't know if I've ever seen an illustrated recipe before!
-
@BWoodford Thanks! It was so challenging. You should defiantly give it a try!

This one is a picture manual. A bit rough but I managed to finish it. I'm not too handy with Photoshop so please don't be too harsh on the contrast.

More watercolor practice.

A little bit of art journaling yesterday. Does anyone else find this challenging?
-
A little dino doodle.

I've been experimenting with watercolor and acrylics too.

Drink doodles. Now, if I could figure out how to do a more complex composition I'd feel like I'd be moving forward. Cheers!
