Sunday's effort was an exercise from Ardith Goodwin's Geometric Watercolor class that I recently downloaded (13 short videos plus pdf). I've learned that watercolor is much more challenging than I thought. Plus like most students, I haven't been using enough water to dilute the pigment.
For the class assignment, I set myself up for a lot of work with the number of geometric shapes in it as well as their positioning. There are eight different color sections radiating from the center (4 with red/pink and 4 with yellow/orange). Gradations appear in the shapes within the framed area with the light source from below and to each side.
I'm no pro at this by any means, and now I have a much greater appreciation for watercolor artists and the artistry of their work with this medium!
