Gansai Tambi watercolour fun
Another Chook

A not completely successful chook
It is a bit of a mess, but practice every day right?
sulphur crested cockatoo
Here is a quick little watercolour postcard featuring a cockatoo. He is a happy little fellow I am calling Herbie. He is a Micron pen line and Inktense watercolour wash on Winsor and Newton watercolour postcard paper. Thanks to @laylaclode for the image at https://unsplash.com/photos/U2c2XCaB65U
Playing at Still Life
This was a quick but fun little challenge. I have not really got into still life painting, but thought that I should give it a try – and hey, I was forced to eat some mini apple turnovers!. This is a mostly watercolour artwork (Daniel Smith and a little Gansai Tambi) but I did finish off the turnovers with pencil. A little white gel pen was also used for the highlights (then toned down with coloured pencil).
Watercolour Portrait
This is a portrait of Mum. I lost her last year and wanted to create a portrait using my favourite photo of her. This is A3 size on watercolour paper, using Gansai Tambi and Daniel Smith Paints. So much Prussian Blue was used in the making of this art!
Line and wash watercolour
Why is it that I second guess my watercolours so much and then end up making line and wash using microns. I mean it was probably fine, but I decided to go for the microns. I don’t hate the result, but I do this all the time! Anyway – this is based on an image I found on Unsplash – fungi, leaf litter and pine cones on fabriano paper.
