Morning Glory 6x9 watercolor Click here to Buy Painting Tips: You don't always have to paint the background sometimes just using the white of the paper is enough. This will allow the image to become very important to the viewer because it does not have to compete with the back ground. All Work ©2006-2019 Art by Delilah

Raven Feather

Raven Feather 9x6 watercolor Click here to Buy I painted some of this feather wet in wet. Wet-in-wet watercolor technique is at times frustrating, but always exciting . I find one of the hardest parts in working exclusively in this technique is knowing when to stop. You cannot get fine details initially and as you keep working the previous washes and continue to spread, mix, and mingle your paint you may muddy some colors if you are not careful. So I laid down the black and mixed so purple into it while it was still wet. I then let this dry completely. I went back in with a fine brush and added more black,some blue, and just a little Quianacridone Magenta for drama.

Flowers painted in watercolor

Field of Daisies 6x9 watercolor painting Click here to buy When painting white flowers in watercolor the trick is to leave as much of the white paper as you can. When you’re painting a white flower, you’re really painting with water and very little color. First, figure out the values. Before you start to paint, study the value changes within the white petals. The conventional way of painting white flowers is to paint the negative space surrounding the flower. The other technique is to treat a white flower like any other flower, only with much less paint, letting the white of the paper represent the brightest hues. The idea is to paint the lines that imply the shape and let the white of the paper represent the flower. I have used the conventional way of painting a white flower here using the negative space around the flowers to show their shapes. All Work ©2006-2019 Art by Delilah

Long Eared Bunny watercolor painitng

Long Eared Bunny 9x6 watercolor Click here to buy I’m passionate about painting with watercolor using the wet-in-wet technique. It suits my personality to paint quickly and each new painting is a challenge for me: the wet paint is laid on wet or damp paper, the colors flow and blend into one another in beautiful, unexpected ways, creating a diffused effect. It is the method that allows me to work fast.I like to let the medium help me work. All Work ©2006-2019 Art by Delilah
