Weekender Artist

Here are some collections of my watercolor paintings. Done simply on Drawing blocks. Have yet to paint on professional watercolor papers as they are somewhat pricy. Therefore, for starter, drawing blocks are cool enough.

Venice, Watercolor Venice in Full, Watercolor

This piece is very unique as it requires plenty of patience to draw out the details and plan the sequence for each color application. This is an experiment for me using a different technique. It turned out quite well for a beginner. I am really satisfied with this piece. I copied this painting from a photo of a rare species of locust from a geographic magazine.

Locust, Watercolor

This is by far the simplest of all my watercolor painting, due to the spontaneity of this technique. Sketching is required for preliminary, but done in HB pencil, as minimum as possible. The layers of watercolor applications are also limited to at most 3 times only.

Misty College Building, Watercolor

Continuation of the above painting.

Misty College Building (continue), Watercolor

This is another painting of Venice, depicting the dome scenery. Done in shadowy style, keeping the colors hue to minimum.

Dome in Italy, Watercolor

Dome in Italy (Full), Watercolor

This is one of the earlier work in my effort to paint in watercolor. So please don’t be too judgemental on this piece. I am not too pleased with the focus point of this painting, that is the ship itself. However, I did discover some new technique with the background. Shen Zhen, Watercolor
