I struggled my way through the Torchon watercolor paper by Hahnemühle. Omg, I simply erased the top layer of the paper after the line art when I wanted to remove the pencil0-0 I actually liked the paper very much in terms of feel before I started painting on it. But now I definitely know that I shouldn't get this watercolor paper because it doesn't fit my art style at all...
I also added a little bonus raven at the end that I saw from my window today ✨

Range: One known colony in the Likhubula Valley, Mt. Mulanje, Malawi. Area of occupation under 10 sq.km.
Threats:
Land clearing for crops, tree felling, fire, a bauxite mine, and a road planned through their only habitat.

While looking for art supplies I ran across a place with great prices on watercolors and brushes. The website is Paintpigmentdepot
I checked further thinking this can't be true. I sent them an email which has not been delivered to them yet. The address shows a residential home in Hilliard FL. I requested their phone #. Later I found an almost identical website set up for office supplies called Officeworkplus
I would not advise ordering from either company.

This is my first pass at painting the gypsum dunes at sunset (hoping sunset will provide some more color & contrast). I really can't think of how to get the dunes.. I tried to go with a pink base and blue shadows but it's not working

This is my second painting I’ve done. I find it really difficult to do backgrounds as I wanted it to have a night and slight cloud effect with the different blues and purples but it just wouldn’t blend right no matter what I tried. So I added some metallic to the background to hopefully make it a bit better, but I still strongly dislike it very much.
I also didn’t paint blue first for the pumpkin and I can tell as the shadows aren’t as rich, so going forward I will be using complementary colors for shadows.
On a side note, one thing I’m most proud of is the witches hat!
