This is a more detailed and realistic painting than I usually make. Which also makes it look less real. It's harder to make them look good, though. So I'm happy with how it turned out. I get that fjord vibe. Which was what I was aiming for. But lots to keep working on. As always.…
Another day, another painting. This one is, hopefully, showing a wet day in the fields. Some wet corn. Some wet grass. And a barn being colored by the green sky. I hope you are having a good day!
I’ve never painted clouds using watercolor before. So why not try it out. To get a sense of what I needed to do, I used an old tutorial book I got back in 1998. It was fun reading in it, reminiscing about my childhood years. I didn’t use it much back then, though, but I’m…
I've made birch trees using oil paint: I've made birch trees using digital programmes: I've made birch trees using pen and wash: But I haven't made birch trees using watercolor only. Or, now I have. And it was very fun. I started out making a quick sketch of the trees. I then…
Well, it seems, from some feedback I’ve been getting, that I’ve spammed down all my followers with over 700 notifications of new posts… What a mess! I want to apologize to everyone who got all these notifications and email’s. It was never my intention. During some site maintenance, I changed the settings on my posts.…
I'm not particularly pleased with this watercolour painting. But I thought I should post it anyway. It looked better before it got overworked. And a lot brighter. But, as I've had a little break from watercolor painting, it was bound to happen. It was fun to paint, though. And another lesson learned.
I’m not sure whether or not I like this painting. But it was quite interesting painting it. After a quick wash, blending some red and yellow watercolor, I decided to scrape on the rest of the paint using a palette knife. I first used some black gouache for the cliff. Then some dark green and…
I drew a wall in my last post. An old, worn down brick wall. It was fun. So I wanted to draw another one. In a loose style. This is how it turned out: I think it ended up looking pretty cool. But I wanted to try to add some colors. So I uploaded it…
It's been a while since I've painted these little pieces. So it was time for another one. Out of training, it didn't turn out that well. I'll need to get back into it. But this wasn't about the result. Just getting it done. So I can do it again. I hope you like it, and…
I've been drawing a lot of birch trees recently. Or, trees in general, to be honest. This time it's depicting a faltering summer. The warm earth is getting just a bit colder. The green is clinging on to the last leafs. And it's getting ready for winter. I can't help thinking that this might be…
