this abstract piece was spontaneously inspired by a rogue caterpillar in my balcony garden. Things got crazy rough green paper was used along with pigment and mass tone. I really enjoyed using Quin gold in thus piece…the yellow translucency when diluted and the rich deep gold it mass tone. This was a great way to spend a Sunday night.

I have been learning watercolor over the last year, lots of YouTube and skillshare tutorials. Now I feel like I’m getting into a groove and finding my style. I very much feel the imposter syndrome even with all the positive comments I get from friends and family and I know I am still very much a novice so please lay on you constructive criticism! This is one of my originals.

I spent a lot of time painting this weekend. I find it so relaxing. I get lost in it, because my brain becomes calm.

Looking for tips/advice/feedback in general - Abstract Watercolor

Post image
15 Upvotes

Hello fellow artists! I’m not necessarily new to watercolor, it’s definitely my preferred medium for painting, but I would still consider myself somewhat of a beginner. I know that there is still so much to learn and lots of experimentation that is almost necessary (It’s a huge part of why I love this medium so much, though it can be overwhelming at times). I’ve been playing with different styles, and this current piece I’m working on is alot more abstract/free flowing than what I’m used to. (mainly using wet-on-wet technique here) I really enjoy where this one is going, just starting to feel “stuck”

I’d love to hear any feedback, tips, or suggestions you guys may have to improve my technique, composition, etc ✨
