Watercolor WIPs- Sharing and Learning

[coops]

I love your gentle way of painting, I feel very relaxed when viewing your wonderful work

A darker image, perhaps. Done free-associatvely,where I wasn't really sure what I wad drawing for a long time. Still not really sure. :P

Very powerful and thought provoking. Maybe call it "Orphaned Angel".

These are two quick works I did in relation to a conversation with Tigermoth. She's got the original watercolors, and I'm trying to reproduce some results without having to do backflips. I'll see if she can bring the original pics into this thread.

Watercolor Seahorse-


and Mermaid-

[Caesar]

Your last addition are wonderful and amazing again. By means of Your discoveries on settings and use of ancillary procedures and tools, You are progressively declining AR watercolors in every kind of real WC style.
The first one is a superb artpiece looking very much like a Moebius' color drawing. Congrats!

Here are the pics as requested.

But somehow I ended up with a skinny seahorse but a more fully fleshed mermaid. ???

Okay! After a week of repeatedly failing I've got the first Youtube video up. I've never done that before, so that's pretty cool. It's a tutorial on using Texture Overlays-- how to import them and set them up, what they offer, and why I do them before I paint my image rather than after.

Here's the link to the tut. If you feel up to commenting or liking the video, it's always helpful. Hope this upcoming series of tutorials answers some questions and makes watercolors in Artrage make more sense to people. If you have any questions, ask away-- either here or on youtube. Fun!!
