Day Thirty-Six


9.5"x12.5", watercolor on paper

After so much watercolor-style work on flimsy paper, I decided it was time to buy some real watercolor paper and try using actual watercolors. Given my current obsession with bright pink, I suppose it was natural that I went for "fluorescent rose."

I was really enjoying working with the watercolor, especially its mutability and the way I could build layers of transparent color. I enjoyed the texture of the paper, the way it took the paint... basically everything about it.

I think this is not necessarily a finished piece, but even if I don't elaborate on it, I will definitely work more with watercolors.
