Randezvous with Watercolors


I've been playing around with watercolors lately and I've discovered they are "my" sort of paints. There is such color, beauty, simplicity in them. So very very different a experience from poster or oil. I'm not going to assume I'm a great painter or anything. I've amateur at the least, so please ignore the glaring mistakes. Or better, point them out so I know what I'm doing wrong. 
I should also mention, the paintings are recreations so all credits to the original. Thank you for the inspiration :)
The very first. Also discovering the kind of paper to use.

Still learning

Kinda getting there I think
 
Yep
Latest one.


 I've given most of these to friends as they are recreations. I'm going to put my effort into the creation process and work on some originals this December holidays. Watercolors have become an addiction of sorts.



 Oh, this one is poster paints. Toothless for a friend on her birthday!

    Manisha, these are amazing! I especially love Toothless, the latest one with the girl stretched out and the bunny! I know what you mean about water colours being your type of art because you are slaying it, and you better keep at it (and keep sharing them with us as well!) I love this :3

      I felt wary of watercolors initially! But it so much simpler, the technique, once you figure out how to treat the colors.
      Thank you!

    I don't have much experience with watercolors, and I actually think it can be very tricky to use them, so I really admire you for these, they're amazing!! <3

      Not that tricky once you get a hang of its basics.
      Thank you Carla!
