Watercoloring Spritz Flowers

 This week Linda is sharing this video tutorial seen here on YouTube that is using a spray spritz waterbottle to move the paint for a loose abstract pot of flowers. 

I did watch the whole video before I started painting and I decided that because it would start with spraying the paper with water I picked a bigger piece of paper to try it on. 

 It looked pretty straight forward so, this was first round of Daniel Smith paints while wet and I walked away from it at this point.

 how it dried.

 So I did add in some more paint to the dried painting and I really didn't like this but, by this point I had already forgotten what ever she may have said about this stage of the painting. I know now when I look at the mug shot of hers that there had to be water added to these paint dots because, they did not dry like this on her finished paintings.

 So I spritzed it with water again, added more dots of color and drug some of those around with the wet brush. 

 Today when I came home from work I added more blue to the right side of the pot and more color to the flowers. and so, I really like how the colors melded for the pot here but, I feel like the greens for the foliage got really muddy. and I am not liking the blooms that well. but, Abstract and loose are very hard for me so. 

This is how it looks at the moment. I have not made this into any kind of a finished project. I think this could work for a gift tag maybe not sure yet. The thing I think I want to try some more is the colors I chose for the pot and I think if I were to do this again I would probably change the colors of the flowers/leaves as well. maybe pay more attention to what colors she may have used. Just thinking out loud. That's about it from me, I hope you are doing well & If you'd like to play along with us you can find this challenge here at SCS. Thanks for stopping by.
