Water Colors
yupo paper
10"X 13"
This is the work from my first class. The instructor, who is a practicing local artist (Barb Starner), showed different effects of water colors on different materials like the water color canvas, clay board, yupo paper and cold press water color paper. This one is done on yupo paper which is kind of glossy and it is very difficult to control the spread of colors. I had to be very bold while doing this one especially as I painted directly on paper...I mean no pencil drawing. It turned out good but I feel that I can still do a few final touches.
Constructive criticism is welcome.

thanks for the compliment wayfarer!
Are you sure this was your first class? Wow, you had a pretty good control of the water making a nice translucent effect. I have tried watercolor myself and I wasn’t able to control the water. Congratulation!
living away: this is from the first class here in the US after a break of almost 6 years.
