Another talented artist in our midst :)

WOW!! This is gorgeous Meadow!

That is brilliant.....Well done.......

Well I've (tried) done watercolours which leads me to believe I'm allowed to comment :) Really is well done!!!

I think it's lovely too. Very refreshing and subtle and gentle.
I'm not good at praise either!!

That is really good Julia, well done ;o)

Fantastic M. If your a beginner your a very talented one! :o)

that is beautiful, thanks for putting it on here meadowland, im trying to learn to do these.
please put some more on ~ the colours, the reflection and the delicate trees are lovely.

Ah that WC thought you had put a pic of a loo on lol
THat looks really good!!!!!! Lovely subtle colours and beautiful reflections..well done indeed :)
Water colour is not my preferred medium..not sure why really..i like big canvases and thick paint toomuch maybe :)

Only 5 weeks meadowland. I signed up for a course and I love it. Previously I thought I would like oils because of their bright colours. I had a little go with them but I don't think I understood what I was doing. I'm not good at drawing. What I love about water colour is the effects and the surprises it gives! I have a lot to learn yet though!
Our homework this week is to copy a picture using only one colour - but using tones and shades!

Hah yes maybe they do! Have you ever tried acrylics or oils? WC is the hardest paint to use!

Looks excellent to my (untalented) eyes. Beautiful colours.

I find the larger the water colour the more difficult it is. The colour palette is lovely Meadowland.

I have just dug out the Windsor and Newtons not seen them for years. I was doing abstracts when I last used them, abstracts are very useful when you have paint doing what it is not supposed to be doing ;0) I will get some paper at weekend.

yes please pimpernel, im looking forward to that too.
i like wet in wet too meadowland.

I will load a very old one in a minute...The only one I hang, done in my youth ..lol It will be for a very short while in my pictures

in your youth?? you are not still in your youth???

yes great for skies ~ you never know quite what will happen!! but to my mind there is so much water in the sky, in the clouds, it seems the right medium to portray them.

You are gonna miss it if you dont hurry Stiki

what your youth???
i found the picture, thank you ~ it is just amazing.

;)

I should have looked at this picture first as you have answered my question.Your picture is really good. I love to paint water and trees the most.

can you put some pictures on here ~ please rose?

Go on Rose...I did

where is rose? is she painting already?

dont hold your breath!!!

BREATHE!!!

was just going to send the paramedics!!

Ok...Put up Stiki nI will post Primroses again and leave em

You have hidden talents M! Can we see some others of yours? I don't know if I'm too late, to catch Pimpernels = going to have a look.......

i havent done the picture yet.

the others might be tomorrow ~ not tonight. dont know how brave i can be. you will see how hopeless i am if i put the pictures on.

:~)

Oh darn I missed it Pimpernel. Pretty please put it back on???

its on poppylover

For a limited time...

Its not the dripping larch branches ????

lol

Meadowland and Stickie, my pictures have already been on here, you will have to go back to my blogs to find them.

Yes It is water colour but as I use tubes, to get more detail of trees e.t.c. I use them with a dry paint brush.I start by doing it all wet and then I build it all up gradually which is why they don't all look like water colour. I went to night school for painting about 18 years ago.I could draw but not paint and when I did ,the teacher said ,although it wasn't like water colour , it was my way of painting and should stick to it, so I did.I think I did do wet in wet for the water scenes,but as its a few years since I did them, I can't quite remember.

Beautiful, I would be VERY WILLING to hang this in my house - I should be so lucky; -...
