Here is another bird I have recently painted. It is one of my more detailed watercolors. Although I love the simplicity watercolor can bring, I also enjoy adding lots of detail to feathers, eyes, and backgrounds as well! As you can tell, this painting is more structured than the last watercolor bird I posted. By this, I mean that I was more controlling over where I wanted the colors to go. This painting relies a lot on layers, letting the art dry every two-three applications and then re-working back in with more dark, contrasted colors. It involved a lot of buildup, whereas the song-bird painting posted below was all about letting the watercolor be free! I enjoy both types of technique when it comes to watercolor, precisely due to the fact that each can produce a completely different feel and look than the other. More like this here are listed in my updated Etsy shop, take a gander at my selection of artwork! I'd truly appreciate it:
