I just finished a painting for a client, based off of examples she sent me from Ballard's and a couple of other places. She wanted calming blues and greens, with a touch of yellow.
It's an inspired landscape - or maybe more of a seascape. Depending on the way you look at it, I think it can represent dusk or dawn, and a rainy or a pretty day.
I did lots of processes on this piece, including placing it out in the drizzling rain for a little while!
(after the rain)
this is my little container of a blue wash I was using - I thought the colors were pretty. Almost marble-like.
This is a trick I learned in college, in a watercolor class: sprinkle salt onto your painting, and the paint almost pushes away from it, to create pretty little dots. (Plus, I like how it looks like sand on the "beachy" painting) Kosher salt is better, because it's bigger, but I didn't have any.
My favorite part is these blue patina-like drips on the "ocean".
you did an excellent job on this!! I LOVE the colors!!!!
ReplyDeleteStopping by to say "hi" from one of your newest followers...hope you will stop by. :)
Great Job!
ReplyDeleteI am sure you also know this from school, but dripping rubbing alchol on water color has a cool effect too!
thanks, you guys! Melissa- i forgot about that one! i'll have to do that next time...
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me? I thought that first picture was the Ballard Design sample. Then I clicked the link and it brought me to a picture of a painting that was NO WHERE NEAR as good as yours (no offense to the artist). But, the colors in yours are amazing.
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! And I agree, it is better than the Ballards one. Beautiful and calming.
ReplyDeleteAh, the salt trick! I haven't thought about that since my watercolor class in college. :)
ReplyDeleteAll the layers look great! I love a painting with lots of technical history.
Just beautiful, perhaps one day you can do a post on how you create such amazing paintings!
ReplyDeleteLove this!!! You can do anything!
ReplyDeleteTotally rad! I love that! Super cool that you put it in the rain.

I've been surfing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
