That’s how I’ve been practicing my painting skills recently. Trying to paint without thinking about the details too much. No initial pencil sketching allowed. Just starting with blank sheets of watercolor paper.

The lovely purple paint is a mixture of Quinacridone Rose and Ultramarine Blue.

My first two attempts below were just okay. It allowed me to figure out a different painting style and to paint quickly.

Unfortunately, I only had a few minutes of pure painting enjoyment before I had to go tackle a few other projects that are not art related. More to come!

Paints: Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor

Paper: Arches Cold Press 100% cotton 140 lb

Brushes: Cheap Joe’s American Journey #6 & #8
