Expressive Watercolor: Paint Hummingbirds with Exciting Colors

Wow absolutely stunning Janice! I love how dynamic it is, by incorporating so many fine details as well as bold washes and on top of that very exciting salt effects. Really well done! :-)

Your salt effect looks amazing! And I can tell that you know how watercolor works. From wet on wet, wet on dry, dry brush and splatters! And look at that clean white space in the wings youve created! Beautifully executed!

so pretty, love the wings and head and background too.

Lovely salt affects Janice. Your bird is soft a graceful :). Just to let you know that your painting is just showing the blank photo frame on your profile and student projects page. If you go to Edit project, and upload your painting again at the top of the edit project page, it should show up for all to see without having to click on it. I have heard there might be some issues lately on Skillshare when the photo is uploading properly and you need to do it more than once. Just thought I would let you know :)

Thanks for letting me know Diana.  I think it’s okay now.

Yea!  Lovely bird is there for all to see :)

I really enjoyed this tutorial and was pleased to get some salt effects.<img srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/f7add1ab.jpeg 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/f7add1ab.jpeg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/f7add1ab.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="Hummingbird tutorial - image 1 - student project"><img srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/3dd02353.jpeg 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/3dd02353.jpeg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/9b51a9e69abb8b22cea8ab005ced0aa8/3dd02353.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="Hummingbird tutorial - image 2 - student project">
