What's your favorite medium (i.e. acrylics, watercolor, oils etc)?: Watercolor

Tell us a bit about yourself:: I like watercolours and maybe one day I will try to paint in all the mediums. Know I just concentrate to improve my pictures.

I feel like a beginner every time that I start a picture. I managed to finish one from every 5 that I start ,and this one, once is finish........well.....to say the truth, usually I don't like them. I find always mistakes on them.

One day.........maybe know a little bit to far away today, but every time nearer..........I will paint what I like.

Now I use books, tips, videos, tutorials , ask my friends, my husband, everyone that come across my line about how to paint or what do they think about my works.
RESUM......I fell like a beginner that has already spend some money in paper, colours and books and still feeling like a beginner , stadium medium.

As you can see, I used a little artistic license with this one. I see what you mean about the eyes, though. Ich male immer die zu großen Augen. Thank you very much for your comments. I will work on the eyes.
