Misted Watercolor

Photo Details

Poster: muscrat

I didn't get great water flow outside the image. My mister is a fine mist so I probably should have sprayed more water. It was a fun tutorial. Thank you Dina!

Oh, Kathy, I especially love floral stamped images, and even more, I am drawn to botanical floral images. This is so very beautiful, what a special, and very wonderful birthday card, a great tribute to someone who will certainly feel very special when your card arrives or is given to the intended card recipient.

I would like to learn to color especially to watercolor, and I have purchased a couple of very small Daniel Smith pan sets of 6 colors each, but I haven't used them yet. You're definitely making me think about pulling them out and using them for the first time!!! I have a couple of nicer brushes but I need to invest in a few more for watercoloring I think. I personally really like how you have used the colors for your leaves and blossoms to carry over into the immediate background of each, I think that it gives the floral image more presence, and it shows some maturity and expertise as to how to handle the background around the stamped image, something that I would definitely struggle with. You may think that you should have used more water and to have had those colors travel further on the page and have less of a presence, but I truly like it just as it finished, to have more concentrated pinks and greens and to be brighter. It would be very interesting, however, to color this again and to try it with more water, and if you do, I really hope that you will upload that artwork as well, as I'd absolutely love to see it!!!

I have noticed your cards on SCS, and I am most definitely an admirer or your artwork, Kathy. I always appreciate when seeing someone's artwork makes me think so that I am learning, or that I learn from seeing that artwork, as I have done both here, and I hope that this will translate into learning and growing, so that I can improve my coloring and create floral cards that are better, and that what I color will look more realistic. I have much to learn especially about coloring, and I'm hoping that I will do much better with watercolor than I have in the past with alcohol markers, as I would have to confess that my coloring with those has not been terribly successful--but I also know that those who color well with them have generally put in the investment of time and a lot of practising, something I have not done especially lately.

Thank you SO very much for leaving a comment on a hand-stitched card I uploaded, it means so much to me when someone, especially someone whose work I admire as I admire your artwork has left me a comment. You have really encouraged me and uplifted me too, and I am most grateful, Kathy!!!

Sending my most sincere thanks again for truly brightening my day and for encouraging me regarding my hand-stitching onto cards, Kathy!!!

Sending my thanks, Kathy, and please know how impressed I am with your watercoloring!!! My apologies that this post is so long, I have favorited this card so that I can have the pleasure of looking at it again, especially to look at how you have master

Best wishes, I look forward to seeing much more of your artwork here as well as elsewhere,

Joanne

The mist enhanced the wonderfully colored and detailed butterfly and floral.
