9 x 12″ Watercolor and ink on paper

Goal: To create one piece of art each day for 365 consecutive days

I decided it was time to try something a little different yesterday – something of which I had a little less control over. I pulled out some watercolors and began painting a loose design directly onto a piece of glass. I then grabbed a sheet of watercolor paper, soaked it down, and pressed it onto the painting. The result was a very loose wash of color that brought to mind a misty forest. After letting the paint dry, I drew in trees and other forms to create an abstract landscape.

I like the combination of washes against the bold black lines. My only regret is that I could not seem to get the photo to capture the detail and color as well as I’d hoped it would.

If you would like to have this piece as your own, you can buy it here.
