Today I am pretty excited to share a happy little hummingbird. I do pretend to be a water colorist, so with that being said.....I am pretty happy with the way this came out!
What I am not happy about is......I didn't use good paper and that makes a big difference! Watercolor paper would have been the right choice, however I was playing and didn't think it would turn out. Lesson learned, use good paper even if playing.
Here is how I did this.
Supplies:
- Brea Reese Watercolor Pan Set Core Colors
- Brea Reese Watercolor Metallic
- Watercolor Paper - Wish I did!
- Water-based duel tip markers
- Brea reese Fine Liners
- Paintbrush
- Water
- Palette
- Pencil
Instructions:
1. Sketch out bird and flower. No detail needed.
2. Start adding paint and dry in between, using a heat gun.
3. Using the Water-based markers I added in some color.
4. Over the top of it all I came back with the Metallic water color and for detail I used the detail markers. You can really see the metallic on this hummingbird. It is beautiful. You will notice it in the final picture around the throat and chest.
Final
Thanks for stopping by!!!!
