Hola Fatih! Being from Barcelona and working as a tour guide in my lovely city, I had to enter this project! Even though I have never painted the SF it sounded interesting to embrace the challenge of doing something out of my comfort zone! I have decided to draw the SF as it will look like when finished (should be next year, hahaha). I will try the 5 different styles. The first one turned out to be rather positively surprising! I had to find a pen that would hold the watercolour afterwards and in the end the result turned out quite pleasing. The second style was totally new to me!! I like the first style better, even though this one teached me, that you can also achive something recognizable with a lot less effort and time! ;-) Will deliver the other three in due time... ;-)

My next attempt was interesting as it was a style that I would not typically use. I learned to just go with colours I would normally not use (pink??) and to invent a flower meadow in a contrasting colour that is not existing in front of the SF. And the result ? I quite like it! Leasson learned: step out of your comfort zone and believes!

For the next style I use a refillable brush pen as I don't have brush pens. I was able to use it for the warm colours. The sky I did with a separate brush, as I din't want the blue to be contaminated by the orange and yellow colours. I loved the effect of the paper towel! It  reminds me of the results on batik on fabric. I was not so happy with the amount of merging of the details. Maybe I should have waited a bit longer so that it didn't look SO blurry. Definitely worth another try.

The last style I really looked forward to! The bold contrast of the blue and orange on the sunset wash were appealing to me. Again I used the refillable watercolour brush for the orange. That was a technical novelty for me!

I don't discard doing more experiments of the SF with other perspectives, techniques, styles, etc. All in all an interesting and fun experience. Thanks Fatih for sharing with us!
