Aquarellkunst

Dies sind zwei Aquarellgemälde, die ich für mein und das Buchprojekt meiner Tochter gemacht habe. Durch Höhen und Tiefen haben wir es geschafft, gemeinsam eine wunderschöne Trilogie basierend auf dem indischen Epos Ramayana zu erschaffen. Es hat einige Jahre gedauert, aber wir sind zusammen gewachsen, haben gelernt, geheilt und konnten dieses Projekt zu einem Abschluss bringen. Ich habe auch 2 Kunstbücher mit den Kunstwerken veröffentlicht, die ich für diese Trilogie gemacht habe (etwa 350 Aquarellbilder, Bleistift- und Tintenzeichnungen sowie Vignetten).

Watercolor painting of spring flowers to celebrate that the cold winter is gone!

This is a small but really fun piece I did about a year ago. It is fun to explore different color combinations. It can be very helpful. Colors create moods and expressions. Do you have a favorite color harmony?

What's more your style?

Hi, glad to be here. I haven’t been painting long, but I always knew I wanted to paint watercolour. I’m self-taught through the wonders of YouTube, but never felt good at it. The thing I love most is pushing colours, watching them flow, crash, and mingle. Two years ago I played around with putting botanicals into wet paint and for the first time, truly felt like I was an artist, because it felt like me. This is one of my firsts and it’s

still my favourite.

Hi. Here is a new watercolor painting. I saw a simple dandelion image on Facebook and thought I could do a little better.  Using first ChatGPT and then Playground AI, I generated an abstract image of a dandelion that had reached its puffball stage where its pappuses were being carried away by the wind. I followed my normal procedure where I sketched my generated image onto watercolor paper and then painted it.  It is 8 x 10 inches in size and prepared on Arches cold pressed paper using Grumbacher Academy paints and Utrecht permanent white gouache. 

I was working on a 780,000 acre sheep station on the Nullabor. The car I was driving solo in broke down. I decided to walk home rather than wait 10-12 hrs for someone to realise I wasn't home and come looking for me.

2.5 hours, 9.75 kilometres later I made it home
