watercolour course: week 1

I love my watercolour course!! My classmates are a great bunch of people, some have done the course quite a few times, which says a lot about the course and the tutor "Kerry" who is really lovely!
We started off doing flat wash and then graded wash. I was really happy with my result... especially for my first time!


Then we moved onto overlapping circles... oh dear... circles are tricky!  Looks like I will be doing quite a bit of circle practice this week!


note to self: be patient and wait for watercolour to dry completely before doing more!!!
I can't wait for next week :)

playing with watercolour

I'm starting a new short course tomorrow "Watercolour painting" at Sydney Community College tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to exploring and learning more about watercolour, which I've only dabbled with recently after doing the "Graphic Design Principles" course! I've got the art materials and I've had a good play around with the watercolour paints, creating a little colour chart... I can't wait!
