Lydia has a great feel for watercolours, amazing this is only her second try...
As part of the getting 'acquainted with watercolours'- program, the starters group worked on an abstraction exercise. First doodle with pencil, colour all compartments without colours bleeding, wash the whole painting and then give it volume using light, shadow and patterns. Amazing, Picasso-like artwork happened last week! I am so happy with it!
Avril also worked on the exercise and it is already showing real volume, look at those brown checkers and red stripes!
Board member Cassie passed by last week and participated, and this time we used her experiment as a demo and to try stings out. Look how great it looks!
Other subject: Eyes. Coming weeks we are painting our own eyes, as a preparation for our group expo in 2019... They will form a series and give a personal touch! Here are the first ones:
Vanessa
Brenda
Marina
Liz
And of course the Bottle & Brush challenge continues! So many great versions - and it looks like we're going to create the perfect one someday soon!
Sylvie D. finished hers - and it is amazing!
Carol did the first brushstrokes, it looks very good, with interesting, sharp white light light
Brenda gave her water a last wash and now it is done, she achieved a very special effect! Love it...
And last but not least, Cathie is experimenting with gesso and other textures. I think this cup is absolutely stunning!!
