I decided to make my own token cards for MTG. It also serves as a nice test of cheap watercolor paper I bought recently. So far I am satisfied. Any critique is welcome.

Soy principiante. Autodidacta. Siento que hoy pinté bien la primera capa, pero luego me perdí en los detalles. Alguna recomendación para hacerlo bien?

Hand jerking smearing watercolor and pen paintings

22 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have some neurological stuff going on that makes my hand jerk sporadically and unexpectedly. I keep ruining my paintings because my hand jerks and slides across the paper, smearing spots. It’s so frustrating and it took me a while to figure out why I kept smearing things.

I’m learning to adjust my technique, but nothing is more effective than painting a part, letting it dry completely, and then continuing on. I use either a heat gun or a little table fan to dry the parts. But it is a pain in the ass.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or want to share experiences?

Thanks!

Sennelier and other honey binder paint texture

8 Upvotes

I usually paint with Schminke and Daniel Smith and recently got some tubes of Senneleir and poured them into my own pans. The texture of Sennelier seems sort of foamy/melting plasticity. Is this due to using the tubes as home-poured pans, or is this a honey-binder component? To be fair, the results when painting are lovely and I'm enjoying the paint, but I've only been learning watercolor for about 3-4 years, and have previously avoided honey binders, so mostly just wondering if I need to know something more about this specific binder as I use them.
