That’s gorgeous. Landscapes are difficult for me, and I’m impressed!

I am currently practicing layering with watercolour. I am growing more confident, but I still think they are so difficult to control.

Hi @siffermus
Practicing with layers is the best way to get comfortable with watercolors and you’re doing great. I’m so glad you’re sharing your journey to learn with all of us. You’re an inspiration.

Hi @DaveK
This drawing is remarkable. Are you going to do the current live lesson of architecture with an ink pen? I’d love to see your version of that.

I just watched the live lesson you referenced. I loved his initial sketch and if I had done that it would be in a frame 
! I feel like I am going to have to do it though… It looks pretty daunting, but wow, a great challenge piece!
This picture took many hours to complete, so I can’t imagine what it’s going to take to do the church with trees!! Off to the store to buy more supplies

Hi @DaveK
I’m so glad you’re planning to do the live lesson with the rest of us. There is a FORUM topic called “Live Lesson - Pen & Ink Architecture” set up for those of us who are doing this live lesson. I’ve already added several posts myself because I am comfortable with the Zebra - Rubber 80 pens and have been working ahead of Matt’s lessons. Take a peek of how my drawing is looking so far. I know you can do this too, but it does take a LOT of patience.

Hello all,
I bought an ink and dip pen yesterday, so today I dipped it 
. I did a little drawing in my sketchbook to get to know the tools. My sketchbook is watercolor cold pressed, and I heard the best would be to use hot pressed with dip pen - well, I can confirm that! It was a bit jumpy because of the tooth of the paper, but a very interesting experience, very different from fine liners!
Here is my sketch of a little pirate Luffy, from the comic book One Piece:

Those look really good
Hi, my most recent effort, a watercolour A3 on Da Capo Water Colour paper (not great quality, but can take a beating, so to speak), Rough, 300gsm. Experimenting on rough paper with a limited palette. Inspired by the kitchen window view. The colours haven’t come out that well in the photo; they look better with the naked eye.
