A quick and simple wet in wet watercolour seascape sketch. It took me about 10 minutes. It measures just 5″ x 3.5″. I used just blue paints, apart from a tiny touch of white guache for the sails of the boat…
Colours used: Prussian Blue, Indigo, Phthalo Blue, Cobalt Teal Blue
Paper: Fabriano Artistco Watercolour Paper, 100% cotton, 140 lb Cold Pressed
You don’t always have to labour for days and hours over a detailed masterpiece, sometimes something quick and simple is enough….
Amen to the masterpiece that arises from consciousness without effort. You’ve really done a lovely job on this piece, Evelyn.
Thank you Carol, it was fun to do…. !
I love its peaceful atmosphere of solitude without being lonely. I also love that it is so tiny. A little treasure just to hold in your hand and look at.
Thank you for your lovely comment Claudia…. !
Quick is sometimes better than overthinking. This makes me want to be out on the water again.
Thank you Sandy!
beautiful and soothing Evelyn!
Thank you Jodi…. !
A beautiful painting Evelyn, the looseness gives a feeling of calmness and tranquillity.
Thank you Sunnyfae!
This is so true, Evelyn, and you have shown that so beautifully here. I really love this one, and it’s interesting to me because just lately, I have been of printing some of my photographs, really, really small. I don’t know why, but I just like them that way. 🙂
Thank you Lisa. I’m only doing small watercolours at the moment because it’s less daunting than a large painting while I’m still trying to find my feel with watercolours….
mmm…. cobalt teal blue.
magical colors that give us all a sense of contented serenity for a moment! love the clouds drifting in the sky too, it sets the mood perfectly.
Thank you Debi… !
So beautiful and serene!
Thank you Jenny!
