I just got a new watercolor set and have started trying to master its mysterious ways. I began with making a paper full of flames. It looked okay, but was rather dull. I noticed I had left a blue-ish spot in the middle which looked sort of like a dark and ominous demon coming out of the flames (if you squinted). I could feel a story coming on so I took up the brush once more and started trying to make it vaguely human. In short, it didn't work at all. So I tried to make it look like a bigger version of what it started as. That didn't work either. So then I tried to make it look like some weird lotus-thing with skinny petals. That worked (sort of), but I still wasn't satified. *sigh* So I got some green while the blue was still wet and played with that for a while. That made it okay... ish. I got some purple and started to try to put in some shadowing... and somehow it turned into a massive phoenix-like blob. Yes, that's right... it's supposed to vaguely resemble a pheonix.... sort of... ish. Expect more of this terrifyingly bad watery-blobish-ness to come.

Enjoy,
Katie
