Leap for Spring!
Decided to add a little more to the earlier picture and do it for IF's theme "Leap".
Experimenting with digital watercolor
Watercolor paintings and illustrations are beautiful. And though I've tried, I never quite mastered traditional watercolor. In fact, I never even came close to the images I saw in my head. My color mixes were muddy and my brush hand felt clunky. I took another route and started using colored inks, mixing them with colored pencils, markers and hand-drawn ink lines.
Fast forward to the present. Digital painting makes experimenting with watercolors fun again. There are many, many watercolor brushes in Photoshop that give realistic results. This is good news for someone like me because it allows me to play...and delete...or add...without the stress.
There is fun in the practice!
