'Art Lessons' #7 Redo


A watercolor pencil experiment, I learned alot from this picture. I am still new to the medium though, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)

What I learned with this picture:

- I learned how to control a waterbrush.
- I learned how to mix the colors on the canvas.
- I learned how I can use the pencils just like paint.
- I learned that I can do a sketch in the color I want the main wash to be in, and then can 'erase' the sketch by using water to smear the color all over the paper.
- I learned what the difference is between watercolor paper and normal sketch paper.
- I learned that I need to do a study on skies and sunsets to avoid another splotchy sky.
- I learned to love my moleskine watercolor sketchbook. this was the first thing I've drawn in it.
