1. USE THE FORUM FOR...
Please use this group's discussion forum (as opposed to the comment wall) for sharing your watercolour paintings. Simply start a new discussion and add your picture to your discussion by clicking the little picture button
You can also use the forum to ask about specific watercolour painting techniques, equipment or anything watercolour-related.
2. USE THE COMMENT WALL FOR...
The comment wall is best reserved for introductions or just to say hi. You could also use it to ask a quick question but you are less likely to receive a helpful answer compared to starting a new forum discussion.

Christopher... wow! I think you have done a great job for your first attempt. The light in the sky looks so natural... and the same bright color as the light dancing on the water. Bravo! :)

Hi, Sybil! I've just seen your Lake Garda. Bravo on your first attempt... and on getting back to painting after a year!! Your forms look good in the painting. My only suggestion would be that you might try for a greater range of light and dark. The lights could be much lighter.. and the darks could be even darker... with lots of variety of tone in between. With the shades being so close, it looks like Lake Garda on a somber or overcast day... Best wishes as you continue!! :)

Well, I've been lurking quite some time now after purchasing Bob's DVD, and I have finally had the time to paint the first monochrome lesson of Lake Garda. I'm quite new to watercolour, but my wife and I have decided to do something artsy together, so we're giving it a go. We've attended a couple workshops giving us a bit of a chance to "learn" the medium. I'm really enjoying Bob's instruction thus far. So, without further ado, here it is... Thoughts?

I have finally got up the courage to paint Lake Garda. I know it needs more work on it. I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

Re-watching the DVDs after about a month of painting my own pictures is really worthwhile. Now I can see all the things that I'm doing wrong!
