I’m pleased with my progress and bringing it all together. Still need to work on my watercolor technique!
I can see the improvement in everyone’s work. -
I like the control of wet on dry technique. I can see use for other methods though. Dry brush for details and textures, wet on wet for wash areas. it’ll be fun to try out in the field, but it’s pouring rain lately and it’d be all wet on wet if I went out now! Journaling in the Pacific Northwest isn’t easy.

I was very surprised by the results when I turned the page upright! It was a lesson in patience as well.

Not a great time to be drawing outdoors, so I collected two flowers from my garden and did my comparison inside where it was dry and warm. I know the Hummingbirds and Bumblebees enjoy the red flower. Not 100% sure about the white one. I’ll have to make note next spring in my nature journal.

That’s a very interesting observation! Nice sketch too.

I’ll need to practice using watercolors. They’re not very forgiving! I think I’ve got the chiaroscuro concept ok though. Great practice exercises!

Impressive sketch! Good proportions.

nice sketch, you really captured the essence of that bird!

This bird would have been long gone by the time I finished the sketch :-)
Glad I signed up to get some sketching tips and practice.
