Additional Info:

This is a approximately 1 and a half hour painting reduced to approximately 30 minutes. I have fast-forwarded through areas that are redundant to emphasize technique and performance as well as color mixing for viewability (and downloadability).

Be sure to get a thick watercolor paper that has some cotton in its construction. Brands available such as Arches Hot and Cold Press Watercolor papers are some of the best. They do run expensive so plan before you paint! Or break the bank and go for it.

I hope you enjoy this process, and please let me know on any of my socials if you have feedback or would like to see additional information.
