Wet paper.

I've been messing around with watercolors a lot lately. I've been just trying to experiment with some new styles and get deeper with some different media than I normally use. So, watercolor is a great place to start. Watercolor has been a part of my repertoire of artistic weapons for about 6 years of so. I have done very little "serious" work with it but mainly use it for studies and quick sketches. Though, the pieces I have done with it I thought have turned out pretty good [click here to see one]. So, bring out the water, brushes, and sketchbook and see what happens.
For those that have never used watercolor don't be afraid of it. It's pretty quick and it can do some amazing things, from simple 3 wash images to near photo-realistic results (which takes lots of patience and a very well thought-out image). I'm far from photo real but that has never really been my intent with images. I am an impressionistic realist; which I guess means it should look like a real painting of something with light and color. The following paintings were executed rather quickly over the course of about 2 weeks and I don't know if anything will ever come of them, but they were pretty fun to do.
Thanks for following along. More to come soon.
