So, a few days ago at work, there were some scrap office supplies, and I was able to procure and undercabinet light. It's about 4 ft long, and I thought it would be perfect as a light-box for doing some watercolor tracings. I'm not the best by any means at drawing, so tracing is a good option for me.
I wanted to do a bluebird, so I found a very simple bluebird online and printed out out an outline. Here is a picture of the undercabinet light, the outline, and then my tracing.
Here's the finished painting below. I somewhat messed up the area around the throat. I wasn't paying attention to the water and it bled a little bit. Other than that, I'm pleased with the overall result. The whole process of tracing and painting took maybe 35 minutes. I cut the paper to 4"x6", so it should fit nicely in a frame.
Definitely much quicker and easier than the bluebird I had done before.
Hope you enjoy.
Waterholics Art is a journey through the joys of painting using Watercolors, Alcohol Inks, and Acrylics. The name is simple combination of all three mediums WATER-HOL-ICS. From landscapes, sketches, animals and florals using watercolors, to abstract Alcohol Inks, to models and miniatures done with Acrylics, you'll find it all here. I also enjoy dabbling in Photography and photo editing, so time and again may post interesting photo's I've taken, or enhanced and modified.
