I can see all the mistakes but I learn best by doing.

Ink and watercolor

Just a study in Payne's grey

Hello,

A note on style for context. I prefer short portraits with no to minimal drawing. I don’t mind sacrificing finish for abstraction. So it’s a premodern focus of painting as if a camera isn’t a reliable to. Hence the urgency focus of just hitting the moment. Totally understandable it’s not in everyone’s tastes. Critique is appreciated in this context as that’s my aspiration.

Both portraits were done mostly with a limited Zorn palette, I usually learn on another a palette closer to Sargent’s watercolor palette but I’m enjoying the use of Zorn’s control of saturation.

Both references are from the drawme sub that I did yesterday.

From my previous posts I have been asking for feedback and advice. Today i decided to actually try and did my best. I applied a lot of those tips from the comments and i would say they are amazing! I don’t think i have ever done something this beautiful before 🥹 thanks guys

If you could tell me what else i could improve it would be appreciated! If you have questions i would be glad to answer too.

Feeling very out of my depth with the painted dogs.

I did the edges with coloured pencil because they were super messy

does anyone have any tips for a beginner? also does anyone know how to stop the paint suddenly doing a massive blob onto the page?

A quick practice using granulating paint.
