Relaxing watercolor painting

 

Relaxing watercolor painting - image 1 - student project

 What i like most is just letting the colors do what they want. The paper i used is 246 lb. /400 gsm / 11x14" kind of a roughish surface takes the paint very well. It is sold as an acrylic pad but i love the surface for what it does.

Playing with colors is most therapeutic when you lose your inner critic. Here i was experimenting with watercolors and some very light pink metallic watercolors on top. It made the pinks look like fuzzy cotton candy. Love Happy accidents.
