Watercolour on Wood (4)
Well its about time I posted the final piece.............................................................................................
I WAS pleased with it, I really was BUT unfortunately the people making the selections for the RSW (Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour) Annual Open - were not of a similar opinion as in they did not include it in their selection. oh well...la dee dah !!.
I know its pot luck with these things but still its a bit annoying when you have made something specifically. Well - that's the 2nd time I have made a piece especially for their annual open submission.
The thing is that I genuinely do love watercolour but NOT in the way its used by hundreds of thousands of artists - I find that utterly tedious I really do ............... I like to use it in my own way. The idea of doing something different with it really appeals to me. Having said that I do appreciate the way it reticulates and bleeds thats absolutely gorgeous...........it's a lovely medium to use if you haven't done any art for a while or if you're recovering from an illness.
