RE: How to Paint Monstera Leaves | Step by Step Tutorial | Water Colour Painting
Congratulation both for your artwork and for the tutorial. Step-by-step tutorials are very helpful to many of us, although I don't think I'd ever succeed with watercolor. I guess I don't have enough patience to learn.
Anyway, I like your leaves, it looks easy to do this, although I know from experience that it's not. I might give it another try, let's see what can I do following your instructions.
You're saying:
A good quality artblock that can absorb water
Can you give an example? I'm using Canson 300g/m2 watercolour paper.
Thank you so much! I believe you can, I used to think that I can never create something of quality out of water colours, however, I was wrong. You might surprise yourself once you try it :) Canson's water colour paper is of good quality. The way I choose the paper for water colour artwork is based on its texture and how sturdy it is. I like the texture of the paper to be semi rough and sturdy as it allows us to control the paint better and we can use techniques like scrubbing and wet-on-wet painting without damaging the paper. I hope that it helps, happy painting =)
It's very good to read your lines, makes me believe I still can :) maybe i'll give it a rest and try it later. Right now I'd like to draw, love pencil and looks like it's more easier for me. Thanks for the kind words and support, have a nice day :)
I am happy that you do and yes, perhaps later on when you like. What matters is you do what you love or keen on. You're welcome and take care x
Thank you, you too and have a nice weekend!
