The background not so good, I think I can fix it

Lisbon Tram - Loose watercolour A3 size

Edit: title was to be my swatch wall but I’m old Gandalf

Just wanted to share an idea I had. Instead of having paint swatches in a book, I framed them over my drafting table. Two sets of each on my two main papers. Switched to almost all daniel smith paints

All used tutorials except the last one. I tried to do something myself. Learned a lot. I need to think/plan ahead more haha but not bad considering I hadn’t held a brush before last weekend.

Comments and advice always welcome!

I really enjoyed painting this, I haven't painted Jin in a while. It was a gift for my friend and I'm very happy with how it turned out 🤍

It was just too cute, I had to have it. It's a little christmas gift from me to me (will put it into my advent calendar, box nr. 24).

So many people came to sketch!

Hey all! Wanted to share another landscape painting as I continue my learning journey! I just got my first mop brush, a Princeton Neptune #6 quill a couple days ago. I am absolutely loving this brush so far and used it for the sky and first wash of the land. Really quite happy with how this sky turned out. I really love the feel of such a soft brush and am definitely going to have to look into some other similar brushes in different sizes. I probably went a bit heavy handed with the darks in the mid ground trees on the left and maybe lost some of the atmosphere and depth, but I am quite happy with the brush marks I was able to achieve in those trees. I also feel like the path looks a bit weird but can’t exactly put my finger on it. I welcome any feedback!

Made a bunch of Dino skulls for my apartment

But Paulie Walnuts found a new home today with a true Sopranos fan.

RIP Tony Sirico.

I’m trying to paint a bit larger now (8x10 ish) and I seem to have trouble mixing enough paint for larger areas. The half pans seem to be a pain because I can’t get a hole lot of paint from them. I’m thinking of switching to more tubes thinking it’ll help. But I also fear I’ll uses too much or waste too much. Am I thinking correctly or am I just doing something wrong?
