A watercolour sketch in my khadi paper sketchbook. No prizes for guessing which brand of paint these are… ! These tubes of paint were on my desk in my little home studio, they made a great subject to paint. The colours of these paint tubes are Prussian Blue and Buff Titanium.
I enjoyed painting these tubes of paint and I like how my sketch turned out, in spite of it’s imperfections. But I also got some much needed practice at drawing with my paint brush… I’ve learnt and grown from just doing a simple painting like this. Now, what else can I paint… ?
What a great idea to paint your paints! I really like this little watercolour sketch.

Thank you Debi – they were begging to be painted, I just had to do it… !!
How I love your blog! So very beautiful … love to watch your steps in watercolor. I am also a beginner in watercolors and your steps are really an inspiration for me for learning, thanks for that!
Hello INA, thank you for visiting. I’m so pleased to have inspired you. I absolutely adore watercolour – for me it’s just THE most beautiful medium to paint with. By documenting my adventure into watercolour I really hope I can inspire more people to want to learn to paint, continue learning or to return to it if they’ve given it up for some reason. Do you have a blog or post your work online somewhere? I would love to see your work…
The simplest items can make the best subjects, lovely painting Evelyn.
Thank you Sharon… !
Simple can be harder, because you can’t hide things in the confusion of a more complex piece. Nice work.
Thank you Sandy!
There’s a powerful graphic sensibility in this painting that contrasts nicely with the softness of the watercolor. Great work!
Thank you very much Lynn….
Evelyn, I absolutely LOVE this.
Definitely one of my very favorites.
Thank you Lisa – painting these was very much a spur of the moment thing…
