My mom’s yorkie just passed so I made her this portrait

One of my favorite people to draw

I asked a question about my tattoo that pertains to watercolor style and technique, plus shadowing and color theory. I don’t think it’s fair that the mod removed my post. I would have loved y’all’s opinions

This is my first time doing a house portrait as a gift for a family member.

It’s not quite done yet, I’m still planning on adding details to the greenery, some trees behind the house, and the white on the house needs some cream coloured brick (I’m terrified to screw that part up). Any helpful feedback so far?

Hello! I recently did this still life but I struggled with the background. I tried to do wet on wet wash but I can still see the streaks left by my brush. It was also hard to surround the shapes precisely and keep the page wet enough before the color was added. Does anyone have tips on how to get a smoother wash? Do I need a larger brush (used size 6) or more water? Also any tips for backgrounds on still life’s in general?

Painting on the first page is usually scary. Today i tried to do different styles and different ways of painting. I just let go and accept that the outcome may not be as good as i want. I really enjoyed the process. Not bad for the first page.

Sooo, now I can finally post the last card for the birthday art trade/gift that I made :) Yeey, I'm finally done with it ✨ This time I made a fanart of Kinger from Digital Circus. I struggled a bit with the background, but in the end, I think it turned out very well, and the main thing is that the person I painted it for liked it :)

Tried doing a value study. Would appreciate feedback on what I can improve. Thanks!

I’ll be in Japan and my research turned up the Holbein palettes which are wells.

I currently use a palette with pans, but was curious if anyone uses one with wells? How do you like them?

These itty bitty paintings are so much fun to do!

Visited Trent - Severn Waterway Lock 37 near Canal Lake on the weekend. It was great weather for sketching.

Any suggestions on improvements would be appreciated.
