Christmas in the City Watercolor

January 23, 2013

Christmas in the city watercolor

Here I am trying to paint like Alvaro Castagnet.  Ha!  He makes it look so easy.  I even tried to paint along with one of his DVDs (not this painting, a different one) and what I got was very different than what he got!  Oh well.  I did learn a lot about washes from him and love his bold use of color- that’s hard to find in watercolor.  I guess in the end it was still good to try!
