Class Project and Exercises

I am posting my finished project(s) but also all of my exercises so you (and I) can see my progress.  I am primarily a watercolor artist so to say that I'm out of comfort zone is a bit of an understatement.  Also, I used acrylic gouache not to be a contrarian, but because I already had it and I didn't want to purchase more supplies.  Finally, you will see that I have three versions of the final project.  One is just gouache, and then I took the same piece and added ink line as that is what I do in much of my artwork.  Lastly, I created a piece in a looser style (more me, I think?) with a washier green background and added ink line.  I will add that I have always found controlling acrylic gouache pretty difficult as it is sticky and hard to get off the brush, and definitely difficult to make fine lines and small marks even with small brushes.   I welcome your comments/ critique.   Thanks for the class!Class Project and Exercises - image 1 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 2 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 3 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 4 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 5 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 6 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 7 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 8 - student projectClass Project and Exercises - image 9 - student project
