#1 - This is pretty much the first time Ive used watercolours. They have never appealed to me before. I am starting the understand how they work, they layer up and smudge when you apply water to them. Sounds really simple but its hard to put into words.
#2 The shadows are better in this one as Ive used a blue tinge I think. and the different coloured stone work has a good effect. Ive tried to have the colours be more intense in the foreground.
#3 I put a gray wash on this first and it just looked murky. I didnt like it so I didn't spend long on it. I started messing about with bleeding as the paper was damp.
#4 - A freind suggested I try a different colour scheme entirely so Ive used bright colours on the building and neutral colours on the characters and some detail so they stand out. I like how the bright colours look against all the gray and white.
#5 - Started with a yellow wash then built up the colours on top of that.
I plan to have 18 of these done (thats how many prints I have...) in the next 2 days.
Update:
Ok so what with going and doing some filming and lighting I'm behind on these... I'll aim to have them done over the weekend.
#6 - This is a continuation of the colour pallette developing in numbers 1 and 2. I like how its coming along especially in the stone walls.
#7 - This was trying out a new pallette. No comments here really.
#8 This is a continuation of number 5. I liked the yellow wash so I decided to do it again but better.
