Color colour couleur



I am still deep into watercolours these days, painting flowers mostly. There is a mesmerizing quality to these colours that magically flow into one another. As one of my students remarked when I showed her one of my poppies and was trying to explain how much I enjoyed watching the colors spread over the paper "It's just like glass !". And this is very true, there is a high similarity there in the way to colors flow/melt and mix or not. I am learning a lot both on colour and on how to choose and depict those tiny little details that make a piece lifelike and interesting. You should try it...
