At first I was excited about this watercolor because i like the idea of layering the background. I think because not enough time was left in between each layer they started to look different than anticipated. I thought the idea of a minamalistic nature scene with a somewhat developed background would be interesting. It seemed to turn out a little sloppy thought.

(Sorry for the low quality photo aswel)

Inspired from something online, I decided to go with a more design element with this piece. I think its really different than lots of other art I see on a day to day basis. Although I'm not gonna lie, I made this piece at 3:30 AM on a thursday morning, I would be interested to try this style of art again in a time where I was more focus.

Here I was experimenting with water and charcoal, this is something I had never done before but overall I was proud of my work and amazed at the process as a whole. Next time I do this I would probably paint with slightly tinted water, so I could more clearly see my design before the end product.

The concept I was trying to portray with this piece is the power of nature. No matter what humans build, invent or do - nature always has the power to destroy it. Any natural disaster can prove that. The passage and growth of time is also something we have not power over. This work is supposed to put into perspective that people don't run the world, the universe runs itself and we are all just living in it.

My idea here was very literal, take the parts off the bike. Although to make the piece a little more thought provoking I added numbers and letter and symbols overtop of the design. The viewer can can come to a conclusion for themselves what they mean and why they are there.

Using a free flowing line pattern, trace the shapes off the piece with a black sharpie. Finally finish off all of the shading on both the leave and flowers. And you're done

Adding a 3rd leaf that goes off the page helps use up all of the space on the page and creates a more interesting negative space. Because of the complex background of the reference photo choosing some sort of design like I did can make a piece interesting although more simple

Going back into those shapes with color pencil, add details like shading, creases and veins of the leaf. Adding variations of colors creates depth. I used blues, white, red, and different shades of yellow and green.

Using watercolor paints start to map out basic shapes and colors seen in my reference photo. Thinking of colors before hand, I chose to put yellow in both the leaves and the flowers to tie them together.
