The Window a Watercolor


 This lovely watercolor painting is from a Paul Clark tutorial on Windows and Shadows.

I transferred the outline to watercolor paper (Canson 140 lb. cold press) using my light pad. It was painted with Winsor Newton Cotman tube watercolors and enhanced with a white General's Pastel Chalk Pencil. I used Daniel Smith Artist Masking Fluid over the flowers to keep them bright on the white watercolor paper.

This painting took me 2 days to complete and boy was it worth it. I couldn't wait to show it off! I'm not a beginner, I went back to painting at the start of the pandemic looking for something to keep me busy. I've done numerous tutorials by several artists, but with Paul's I see right away how much better I am now at watercolor than I was then! Thank you so much Paul Clark for sharing your talent as both an artist and wonderful teacher.
