Trying a blend of watercolours and acrylic for a change, but still going with the nature theme.

Nature is still my inspiration at the moment. And liking a bit of sparkle too (which doesn’t come out so good in photos). Trying new trees this time, free hand so it’s a bit worrying at first thinking I’ll make a mistake. Or as Bob Ross would say, happy little accidents. Because they can be corrected or sometimes it helps the painting take a different turn.

Learning to paint #2
I am thoroughly enjoying painting now and kind of wish I had found it years ago, feeling as if I have missed 20 years of something great. But I am making up for it with all evenings and weekends now taken up with painting. There is a lot more to it than I realised.
I keep switching between finding tutorials on YouTube and trying to use my own imagination. Above is imagination and below is tutorial.
At first I also switched between watercolours one weekend and acrylics the next (below). Liking both, but have settled on watercolours for now.
