Back in high school and early college years when I was still active in doing paintings and drawings, I am not much on using watercolor as a medium. I can say that I am more of the acrylic,pencil and pastel kind of artist. Back then I thought watercolor is for kids (that's a shame, I know!). I bow my head in embarrassment for thinking such thing because now I realize how difficult it is to use. Sure it may seem like using acrylic in painting but I think it's more difficult to blend using watercolor. That, my friend is what I have to learn to master and doing at least one watercolor basic painting like what I did today will help me achieve the skill. That's why this time, I am giving watercolor a try.
I'm starting on basic paintings like my fashion drawings and doing sorts of fonts. This is a great practice (doing the fonts) especially for beginners. My calligraphy practice shown above is a manifestation of my inner frustrations to go to the beach soonest--lol. Somebody take me to the ocean please. :)
