Description
I no longer know which is the real one.This is a fast watercolour painting I painted to thank a person who paid me most generously for a picture I sold them.
About time for me to practise reflections a little. I've always wanted to try to paint a calm lake that reflcets everything clearly.
I hope you like it!
Media Watercolours
Time taken 2-3 hours

Hirmu nätti tunnelma, tuli jotenkin mieleen se satu joutsenprinsessasta ja olo herkistyi. :'3
Ehkä kaikkein paras juttu tässä on kuitenkin toi asettelu ja se, miten heijastukselle on annettu huomattavasti enemmän tilaa kuin oikealle maailmalle. Ei olisi ollut lainkaan yhtä säväyttävä, jos raja olisi mennyt esimerkiksi suoraan keskeltä kuvaa. :>

Kiitoksia paljon!
Ajattelin, että kuvasta tulisi paljon mielenkiintoisempi, jos heijastusta näkyisi enemmän. :>

Sitä se todella on~ :> Voisi miltei pysähtyä ajattelemaan että heijastus onkin se oikea todellisuus. 8D Oikein tällaista syvällistä analyysia. XD

Much better than anything I can even hope to do.
That's why I stick to a camera.
One thought about reflections comes to mind, though. The reflected image is always darker than the original. Perhaps not always a lot darker but usually enough to see fairly easily.
It's one of those things that make some images look "off" even when you can't quite put your finger on the reason.

Thank you very much! :>
I know, I tried to make the reflection look a bit draker but I guess it wasn't really enough.

No voi jestas.
Erittäin kaunis ja jotenkin herkkä työ. Nätit värit ja tykkään hirmusti siitä miten oot käyttäny noita vesivärejä tässä. (:

Todella kaunis työ. Ihan kokemuksestakin tiedän, että vesiväreillä on uskomattoman vaikee maalata, ja sä saat niistä noin kaunista jälkee O__O

If you turn your head sideways and squint, it kinda looks like a flower...

Hmm, yeah, I can see that, too. It reminds me of a waterlily.

The reflection is done really quite well. The only thing I would suggest is to paint the reflection even looser. With watercolour -especially water- there really is a 'less is more' aspect

Thank you!
I was actually thinking about doing so but I wanted an almost mirror-like reflection so I painted it like that. :>

Ah, okay. But I suppose you've got it right it the water here is almost completely still..
