Something New

My first attempt at a watercolor. I like it. I've had it in my head for a while. It took me about a day.

The picture I took doesn't do it justice. Oh and there will be more to come.

Very nice. Like it. Only thing I might suggest you make it a lil more saturate give more color to it. In my eyes it needs more contrast betwenn colors!
Nice work mate! Keep it up

That is awesome. Are the black and white circle things drawn with watercolor too, or did you use somehting different to draw the black lines and such?

Thanks guys!

I agree with the contrast between colors CBC. It's the photo of it, it looks like an old t.v. screen that's losing it's color. The actual picture is quite bright with color. I made sure of that...I likey me some coluhh.

The canvas I used was a very heavy watercolor paper...I'll have to check on it.

and the circles I used with watercolour as well...of course.

lol who is Pam CW?

I don't watch alot of t.v. only tacky shows.

I completely get what you were saying before, about more saturate. Unfortunately i have no photoshop/computer skills, or computer.

or new painting.....yet.

thats really cool, i like the subtle differences in tones and colours, and your big bold cell like shapes.
