Watercolour

I love this birdy. He's from here.
I cannot find a source for this one, so if you know, tell me!
I don't even know how to put into words how much I love these watercoulour paintings! I am a fair hand at drawing in charcoal and pastel, but the art of watercolour eludes me. I think it requires an amazing amount of control, and yet a huge amount of freedom, and I cannot get the balance right! I generally end up with colors smeared together in a muddy mess. But these images inspire me to try, try again. Wouldn't you love to have one of these on your wall?!

  1. Have you noticed that this watercolor girl has the exact same expression as the girl with the hat in your last post?
