Watercolours & Exquisite Ink by Cady Driver

Class number three with .jiang.art was chickens! So fun and I’m learning so much.

Ok, I did my FIRST oil class yesterday and I loved it so much! I definitely need to switch my brain from light to dark painting (watercolors) to dark to light painting (oils). It’s the complete opposite.

And I pretty much had paint everywhere by the time I was done. But I got the gist of the basics and I’m going to PRACTICE. I need to set up an oil corner in my art studio because oils are super messy and I was a hot mess.

I ended up practicing on two and I need to slow down because I think watercolors has trained my brain to block in shapes fast before a wash dries, like within minutes, but with oils, you can literally take days to block in your base, and I was painting waaaayyy too fast, as JJ, the teacher reminded me.

So, stay tuned! So fun! .jiang.art
