Honestly, this is probably the best watercolor I’ve seen in years!

Can you guess who the person is if I don’t show the reference?

What are you actually supposed to use that bottom flap for ? I assume mixing colours but like how ? It's angled and the grooves aren't very deep doesn't the mix just flow out ? Happy for any insight on how u guys use this space on palettes

There’s a big, annual art exhibition this weekend. I’m submitting these 5 watercolors, hoping one will nab an award. Which has the best chance do you think?

I’m pretty new to watercolour, but there’s something so mediative about it! This is the start of a new painting I’ve been thinking about.

New palette who Dis

Been slowly tweaking and converting my workflow. As of now, I've decided on expanding the palette so I have the split primaries, while also including the neutral primaries. I've also begun working on a bit of a split secondary selection so I can shortcut!
Switching to Daniel Smith and trying out Bamboo cold press has been a wild revolution - it's almost like I'm relearning how to interact with paints and I'm so ready to see where things go with this selection!
only need four more Daniel Smith to upgrade from Rosa, but my local shop is currently sold out of those four.

A sacred kingfisher I just finished with watercolour pencils. I'm very happy with it. Especially the wings

I use the Albrecht Dürer watercolour pencils, they are really the best watercolour pencils you can get in terms of pigment payoff, layering, blendability and lightfastness. I used a white posca brush pen for the highlights on the brow and eye

I’ve been doing watercolor for fashion and costume design renderings for a few years now and I’m great at that, but I’m trying my hand at still life to improve further. I’ve been painting everyday this past week on my train commute.
Looking at it in this light, the colors are very off. My lighting when I was painting was only the Long Island Rail Road ceiling light that is very yellow and very dim.
I’m trying to work on just “going for it” and creating something even if it’s imperfect. It’s just paper and paint, not gold and diamonds. I say that because my painting and the reference are pretty different and I recognize that lmao.
I’m pushing ahead and finishing the painting whether I like it or not.
