In an attempt to fill my time with fun activities, I have decided to take up water coloring. Last night, I took my father to the nearest Micheal's store and bought myself paints and special water coloring sheets. Today, the morning was spent on a project I found through a website. The website was designed for beginner painters and broke down the process in steps. I was able to use my own color combinations since the colors mentioned were unavailable in my paint set. I realized I definitely need to work on my technique so I enrolled myself in a drawing and watercolor class through Mountain View Adult Education.
I learned that the painting process is quite fun. I spent about 4-5 hours learning and finishing my first art piece. It is far from perfect and I can see my novice style clearly through the brush strokes, nonetheless, I am proud of it. I took photographs after completing each step.
