Rainy Day



Assignment: Do a picture from this reference. I decided to do more of an impressionistic approach, and I had a lot of fun with the cool color scheme. It's actually a bit more cheerful than the reference picture in my mind.

Materials: Prang Watercolors on Strathmore Watercolor Paper.

Time: 2 Hours.

Date: 4/13/13

Tip of the Day:
Make sure you use high quality watercolor paper; doesn't matter how experienced you are. Horrible watercolor paper is horrible. I'm in love with Strathmore watercolor paper simply because I can slop on a ton of wet and it doesn't get super wrinkly and ruin the piece. It is also very mixed media friendly.
