Sunset

sunset-tree
I just love sunsets, always have. All those warm golden colors.

For this little painting I used tube watercolors for the first time. I have no idea what I am doing, so I just experimented. I really liked how easily I was able to do the background wash of the sunset colors. The tree needs some work, but I am cutting myself some slack, because it is my first attempt at painting an object with the brush only, instead of drawing it, then coloring in with watercolor pencils.

    For someone who has no idea what they’re doing, it sure looks like you know what you’re doing. Nice job.
