Sigune's Adventures in Watercolour Land
Tuesday, 15 April 2008 08:54 pmDid I mention that I spent the Easter weekend with Cecilia/cabepfir? ;-)
...I did.
Anyway: when Cecilia visited the Sleeper's Den, she was kind enough to try and teach the Den's inhabitant a thing or two about watercolour, one of the media she handles really well. I was dying to pick up a few tips, anything that could help me improve, and, well, I did :-). Cecilia had to teach me the basic-est of basics, and I'm immensely happy that she had the patience to do so.
Now, I didn't actually paint anything while she was here. I did start a picture, but I just didn't get very far on account of the tedious fact that watercolour takes so much time to dry, and we had started so late :P. The result was that I had to try and practice what I had seen and heard when I was on my own again. I was a bit nervous about that, and I actually left the picture to lie around until last weekend. But once I had started painting, I couldn't stop anymore - it was such fun! - and I produced no less than three pictures (all of which I had admittedly set up in advance). Here they are.
Ambiorix in the Woods (G)
