Who all did the Woodland landscape watercolor tutorial from Lesson 7-8 of The Watercolor Workshop? I tried out this class using some of the watercolor my mom brought on vacation to the beach. What does everyone’s look like?

Hi @jpmusic84
I love watercolors, but have not done this lesson. I’ll have to check it out. Your painting is delightful.
There are so many learning opportunities at TVI it’s impossible to do all of them. Please keep sharing your work with us.

Oh, yes, I did. them all😅…honestly I changed some a bit because I did not have all the same materials and the city picture did not work out like Matts😇

Hi @Elina
Thanks for sharing your painting. Based on seeing this photo of your work, I have a suggestion that might make your life easier when doing watercolor paintings. All edges of the paper should be completely taped down before you start and that will help to keep the paper from curling up. It might still bubble up a bit when it’s wet while you work on it but should flatten out again as it dries. And the heavier the watercolor paper, the more stable it will be.

This is very well done. I love it.
@robichon yes, since you gave this advice I follow it. This forest picture shows what happens if you are not patient enough to let it dry☺️… I draw it some month ago and learned hopefully a bit😇

You did really good with your woodland landscapes! I am feeling inspired to do this one while waiting for the recording of the gouache live lesson to be posted. Thank you for sharing!
Watercolors are not my forte by any means haha

It definitely helped that my mom who has taken several watercolor classes could help give suggestions. She was doing her own thing but would say to try this to make it easier.

A tiny watercolor painting of the woodlands landscape. Tiny not too terrible of a fail, not so frustrating.
2.5 x 3.75. Used good watercolors, good brush, good tiny paper stonhenge aqua coldpress heavy - a tiny watercolor sample pad with 5 tiny sheets

Hi Sonia @Meme5
You better be careful because you might learn to love this media. Crazy good detail - would never guess how small it is.
