Where are you on Your Watercolour Journey? (No wrong answers) Watercolour Challenge 281 (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone, I have been thinking about how much my style continues to evolve and change, even when I'm 'the teacher'. It's important to remind ourselves that the watercolour journey never reaches the finish line, and nor should it. With this in mind, it's easier to think about enjoying the process of painting. I also want to make sure that I am creating a wide range of content for painters of all abilities. So, here is a fun experiment, where do you place yourself on this scale? Have a go at all three paintings of the hydrangea and let me know in the comments.
I'll be able to move forward making sure we have content that everyone can relate to, get excited about and even push themselves towards. This Patreon community is my professional and personal priority, I get so much out of painting with you and want to make sure you're getting the same.
This is more of a chat, I dont specifically name colours in the video but I've listed them below for you as usual. My hair gets in the way once or twice, apologies!
