Sounds like an idea Chris, maybe soon end up with a art gallery here on the forum....
 
Cheers Dave!

In a way it is - mistakes are certainly harder to correct without ruining the work or paper!

Galleries don't like watercolours much either - I've often been told by artists and gallery owners that they're only interested in oil on canvas.
 
Cheers Eric, and you're right! (Have to be in a way, or we'd never improve! )

Btw, alot of you guys are better artists than me, and I want to get alot better. Would appreciate any advice or construcive criticisms anyone can offer on any of my work.

Cheers!
 
Cheers Hugh and Vic!

No photo Vic - I did a small pencil sketch noting colours (in Humbrol numbers ), then painted it over the next few days. We had a beautiful full moon recently too, and this was the model for the recent touch ups.
 
I don't think I can offer any advice other than to keep at it, Evan. Every drawing gets a little better for me, so I would assume it's the same for painting. Just set the goal to make the next one just a tad better than the last. That is how I approached photo shoots and drawings. Then one day , you look back from years before and you will see a difference.
 
Hey thanks Eric and Wayne, appreciate your comments!

Yep, practice is definitely the key. The drawing and painting have suffered from lack of attention the last 9 years (due to work) and I've noticably slipped. Now's catch-up time!
 
This is an alternate version to the previous Mosquito pastel piece. I needed to add the distant horizon to give more of a sense of height which I hope has improved this piece.
