a few watercolorsesses from mostly last year.


this one is a mallard duck that i stole a shot of when in Hawaii. i later made this bird into a final for watercolor. I'm happy with it for the most part. i feel like the dirt and the feathers were over looked to much. and it just kinda becomes blah. but it's not so bad.


this one i can call my second great watercolor achievement...i guess. this is also from a photo i took while visiting Santa Barbara mission. i kinda got lazy near the end of this one too... bad habits...






a squash study!! from life of course. i just like the shape of pumpkins and squash.
the sense of light is awful in this one.




this one i photographed terribly. but it's actually one of the ones i like the most. i wanted to try and get the different textures of the peppers and lemons, but im happy with what it is. also because i TOTALLY made up the light source and the cast shadow.





they look so much better as tiny pictures.

they would look as fantastic as they do in real life if you'd play with the picture quality in photoshop to correct for all of the muddiness from the camera. DO IIITTTT. hahahah please? th're also really big so it's hard to see them. shadaows look neat though. so simple but confident. Ps. i really want to get you a watercolor pen and we should all go and draw. they are ridiculously awesome and you'd be great with them.
