Relearning How to use water color

0 comments Posted by miles0282 at 11:03 PM


My two old prang water color sets

When I was younger I was really fascinated by water color paintings. I'm asthmatic so the best painting medium for me would be water color. No smelly paint thinner, no turpentine, its just needs water and lots of patience. Unfortunately what looks like very simple paintings is very hard to. Water color is one of the hardest medium to master. Compared to other mediums water color is not expensive...till you get to the water color paper part. I tried to use my sketchbook to make a descent painting but it was hard because the paper became soggy! Water color involves a lot of water and if the paper is not made for that you will get a torn painting! So even though I am trying to save I have to shell out 104 pesos for a piece of water color paper. I cut it to smaller pieces. I had 16 pieces. Thats 6 pesos per small 4x6 water color paper. Since I still studying I am going to maximize the materials. There is no room for mistakes....yeah right.

Well this is the result of my first attempt.



it is actually a glass cat shaped candle holder
which looks like a muddy sleeping cat!!!

Art Hermitage

0 comments Posted by miles0282 at 6:51 AM

Lately I have been going out less. Some may see it that I live a very anti-social life and some same its like I'm a bum with a job. I tired of trying to be someone I am not. So I will be trying out a new kind of life style.

I won't go into the mountains or lock myself in a very secluded place. I will stay where I am but I will give up a number of things:

-I will no longer watch TV (lately I have been watching less and less...I could even survive a whole day with out it)
-I will no longer be the text addict. I can't give up my phone because something important might come up. I can still be reached but I will stop my unnecessary text messaging.
-I will no longer go out with friends during weekends. Well except they drag me out of the house.

Instead I will focus my art (charing)...

I will read books, I will paint, I will write....
I will try to awaken my imagination. I will definitely need a bucketful of inspiration but I guess I could find it anywhere...if i know how to look.

I know this will be a very ambitious plan but it won't hurt if I try!

Well one thing I can't give up is Blogging. So besides painting I will be working on making my own site. Actually I want to make an Art blog.

I realized that I have been living a shallow life. It was full made-up complications. It was empty and I became the villain of my own movie. I decided that I should be the protagonist. My life would be boring I will be more productive and have positive results.

I pray that God will give me guidance and strength to see this through.

Wish me Luck!
