Changes in watercolor style

I've not really been in the mood to do nor write about anything these days. I've just been reading and reading because what escape do I have right now. For today, I just wanted to show my evolution on how I handled watercolor because my sister seem to have found a drastic change in the style. Also in how I used colored inks

So right now, this is how I do watercolors. It's mostly blended and diluted colors as you can see in the progression of the piece here

But back then...

It wasn't much but I still seemed to do blending even before, just not as good as it is now

And even here, when I started diluting the watercolor, it still came off a bit solid

Ignore the cat boy, I think even the style here was pretty solid... but it's cool how I've learned to rely on dilution for certain kinds of images but the solid coloring isn't all that bad too

I know you need subscribers but you shouldn't do that this way. It's disrespectful. Any writer would subscribe if you interacted enough with them on their post instead of bluntly asking for it.

Heyy everything looked really nice for me. I miss seeing these things. You really never failed to amaze me with your colors and artworks. Tho I think you are using a watercolor that has a light color pay-off so the shading can't be darker. Nonetheless, everything still turned out really really beautiful. πŸ’•πŸ’•

Well it's the cheap ones that com in blocks and can be bought for like... 0.5 usd a set? And those are really chalky so i definitely can't shade darker than I would have liked to. Even the blacks in those sets come off as gray so it's not ideal for me. That's why I use inks if i like darker colors. And maybe later I'll show how my ink style changed too, specially with colorrd inks because now I've learned how to blend them properly

I just learned to make do with what i usually had since most of the art material i had while growing up where the cheap ones.

I like the first and 3rd artwork... The first pictures combination of color (seems pastel-if that's what the type of color is called) is really refreshing.to the eyes. It's like seeing the sun for the first time after days of stormy weather. The 3rd photo... I just like sakura (if i'm not mistaken about the tree)... And i think flowers and branches are really hard to paint. caus if you're not good, it will look messy with no sense and style aha. Drawing that picture, i can really say that you are good.

I also like the 4th one though. It looks like a fantasy scene. with that wizzard (i feel like he's a wizzard) and a "male chobitz".. Is that what it's called. the female robot anime that looks so cute with her ears where her cord (plug) is also located... πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…

That sakura was when i was first trying out dilution back in highschool and it does seem like pastel. Probably because cheap watercolor sets always have that light powdery finish to them adter drying

As for the 4th one.. that was actually the ice king and a modified marceline from adventure time. Since the 2 of them have a history together so I thought i would draw. I'm not sure how ot looked like a chobit to you, probably the ears?

yeah the ears ahahhaa.... adventure time, i think I heard of it. it has a yellow dog character, am i right?? wait is it even a dog? I'm not really sure ahahaha

yeah they have powdery finish, which I like. Haha. never thought one can create a decent artwork using them though. i thought it was just for childs play. haha now i know. hahaha

Yes, that show! I religiously watched that while growing up because it was nice and some of the episodes were really cute

You can do justice to any kind of art material though, no matter how cheap, as long as you know how the finish texture will look like

I never watched an episode or clip or that film yet. haha i don't even know if it's a movie or a series haha. But I hear about it many times and see photos and posts about it. Maybe I should consider taking a peek on one episode.

Oh, it depends on the paint, really. I do more realism id it's acrylic and oil. Poster paint and watercolor unfortunately have chalky textures after so they can't really give off that shine you need for realism
