Softness is its characteristic. If you want to have bright light though, you have to paint strong shadows. Maybe try just a small value sketch first to see how bold you can go with darks.<br />Have a lovely weekend!Blagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596986317236711714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37964660165082703.post-34185125078602665852013-12-04T02:52:18.032+01:002013-12-04T02:52:18.032+01:00Hola Cathy: Muy hermosa pintura.

Painting the water is one of the challenges for a watercolorist. Probably you already know the British painter Joe Francis Dowden, I think is a real master in painting the water as you like : http://www.joedowden.net/index.htm Have a look to his site, and eventually if you do not already have one of his book, you can buy one. For me it was very useful.

Looking at the reference photo maybe it needs spots of a deep yellow. And don't forget to leave whites. <br />I am glad the change in settings worked for you too!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715473069364081174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37964660165082703.post-92177497623935743122013-12-03T09:16:27.386+01:002013-12-03T09:16:27.386+01:00Dear Catharina.

The beginning of this painting is very promising, would be a pity to ruin it.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06592451071109351862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37964660165082703.post-68188626345209942812013-12-02T23:42:58.207+01:002013-12-02T23:42:58.207+01:00Un árbol muy bello, me gusta esta acuarela tan log...Un árbol muy bello, me gusta esta acuarela tan lograda.
