Watercolour collage in my Etsy Shop

Hello Arty Souls!

I am very passionate recently about creating watercolour collages. I paint separately elements such as flowers, hearts, boats and I add them to the main piece. This way I create more texture an dimension:)

I hope you like them and now they are listed in my Etsy Shop:

Watercolour love

 Hello Arty Souls:)

Since I attended fabulous workshop with Danielle Donaldson, I am in love with watercolours:) And I do have my favourites already:) I use Watercolor Confections by Prima Marketing. They are coming in cute small and portable tins and they are combine in little colour pallets. There are 5 different pallets so far and I have four of them and I love all of them:) They have very strong pigment which allows to use them also in mixed media. These two paintings I made on white canvas 20cmx20cm. In the first one I used the Shimmering Lights set and I love its calm and natural tone:) As you can see, I added some embellishments too. One you add a little bit of gesso, watercolours will flow:)

 Here I used the Pastel set which has my favourite mint colour in it:)

 These are other three sets:

Do not be afraid of watercolours, just take time to play with them and to observe them:) And I can assure you, they are fun to works with:)

Watercolor Fairy-girl

 Hello Arty Souls!

I wanted to show you my recent girl inspired by Danielle Donaldson who is amazing artist and illustrator. I just adore her way of painting girls in watercolor. I wanted to challenge myself a little bit more and I started experimenting with watercolors. However I found them so much more difficult then acrylics. The difference is that its harder to correct mistake! You can't just paint over with another layer of watercolour. So I would say the process of using watercolor paints needs to be a little bit planned.

What I also learnt from Danielle is that I can use white background with bravery:) And I can play more with clots details.

I will continue to explore watercolours and I will keep you posted with my progress:D
