Description

This is a second attempt at watercolors. Original size of paper was A2 and the theme was 'apple' with no refs so they end up looking kinda abstract. Which is your favourite?

I must say I learned a lot about controlling the water flow, which is never easy since the colors tend to bleed and create fugly smears and water stains. It's still not very good, but I hope to improve with time.

Time taken: Around 3 hours.
Tools: Cold-pressed watercolor paper, Mantegna Water Colors, color contrast tweaked in PS.

Oh, btw art school rocks. :)

I like the second from the left on the bottom. I like it when the colors bleed into each other
and mix. I'm just learning to paint with watercolors. Are the colors supposed to stay seperate? I don't know.
I like these, though, although they look more like abstract earths to me! Thank you for this work.
