Back to traditional tube watercolour…..using up the extra smooth watercolour paper

Having found how much the extra smooth paper buckled when wet( more than my other card stash) I decided to paint images without doing a wash background, hoping to preserve my flat card. So I have gone back to a traditional coloured hare, keeping detail minimal. I also used a 0.3 permanent pen to ink outlines.

I guess it had to be a hare……maybe something else soon?

About REcreate-RebeccaEvansCreate

My name is Rebecca Evans, living in the New Forest I have been inspired to paint the many animals often seen around me. Having ridden since Childhood, painting equines was a natural path to follow. I use a variety of media, watercolour, oil, charcoal, pastel,inks, plus a few more, infact I will try most things. Choosing the medium to work with can really change the effect of the art, and therefore the character of the animal. Sometimes it is an instant decision, sometimes it is the mood from within me which determines which medium I choose to use. I never know what might inspire me next, but if it’s hairy, I will be sure to try.
