Practicing Painting Skies and Local Color Palettes with Views from my Balcony
I've been inspired by Mimi Robinson's excellent book, Local Color - Seeing Place Through Watercolor - and have been challenged with paining cloudy skies. Also, I wanted to partciipate in Liz Steel's #fivedaysketchchallenge to draw/paint the same subject for five days. Here are my attempts.
Have you tried drawing the same subject for five days in a row? At different times? Or made any local color palettes? Here, I made the palettes first for Monday and Tuesday, and then on Wednesday, I did the landscape first then, the palette; and finally, on Thursday and Friday, I painted the landscapes and the palettes simultaneously. Which do you prefer?
