Since I’ve recently been practicing creating depth in graphite drawings, I played with that same concept this morning in watercolor. I created several layers to — hopefully — show depth in the woods. I then added a few marks to represent a woman and a dog. I’m not sure how well they represent what they’re supposed to be.
Here’s my morning watercolor:
I enjoyed using these soft, misty colors, and I really liked working with the various layers of this watercolor. This was done with my new set ofΒ gansai.
I hope you like the painting.
The background trees to the left are very good, as is the woman, and the ground cover! Keep going! π

Yes, I love the dreamy, and expressive nature of the painting. the low contrast makes me think of a misty morning long ago

Thanks. The “misty effect” is what I want most in my watercolors. Little by little I’m learning how to create it. π

Let me know what you think of gansai when you try it. I purchased my set from St. Louis Art Supply (online). They have a good variety of gansai sets, and I felt the price was very reasonable. For Christmas, I think I’ll be getting myself a larger set with more colors. I really love them.

I want the largest set. I like having lots of colours to choose from since I’m a beginner and don’t know how to mix my own paints yet.

I like the convenience of lots of colors. I just checked Amazon. They have the Kuretaki Gansai sets there. The largest one is 48 colors, I believe, and it sells for $50.00. I think I know now what I’ll be getting myself for Christmas!
