Structural Watercolors

So, I didn't think my work could look more childish, until I tried to do this set of watercolors. Not only did I continue to struggle with watercoloring as a whole (though it is getting easier), but creating things with actual substance is significantly  more difficult than things as free flowing as clouds. Without good control, I really got frustrated quickly, on causing super awkward compositions, as below.


So I went a little more plain for the next one.


For this one, its if-y still.


But after doing a full size one and adding in a little more interesting background (even if thats only a more dynamic color), I feel like I may improving a tad. It seems as if I really need to practice a ton more to be at an acceptable level.


Stay tuned for more tales in the struggles of watercoloring.
