Tiny Dancer
Anybody out there experienced in watercolors? If so, I'd love some pointers, tips and tricks, please and thank you! This was my first real go-round with them and I'm hooked. I've diluted my mists a couple of times, and worked with watered down acrylics here and there, but watercolors are so different. And sooo soft and lovely. This month's color sketch at life.paper.scrapbook provided the inspiration for this layout. Hope you enjoy!

Ooh this is lovely! Love that yellow and those photos are precious. Is that cotton wool you have used? Looks excellent!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leanne! Yes, I added some gesso and cotton balls to the clouds! :-)
DeleteThis is lovely Shawna.... If you want to get a really good look with watercolour paints it is best to use watercolour paper... holds the wet for longer so that you can mix your colours. I think this looks great. Awesome photos and the layouts looks wonderful.
