Today I played around with watercolor in painter. All images are studies from random scenes I found wile walking around mapcrunch in korea, I didn't save reference because there is no point I'm not trying to make a recreation of an picture just using them as a base to make my own thing. bla bla bla
First image I made this is me just trying different brushes getting a feel for how things work and trying to develop a workflow.
then I made this and I feel like things started to click with this one, like I have some experience with traditional watercolor but when doing it digitally there's a lot of unexpected problems.
previous images were "quick" sketches and I wanted to see if I can make something a bit more finished.
This I feel should take like 10 minutes max but I spent an hour and a half maybe or possibly longer I get distracted easily. This way of painting feels like the exact opposite of my normal process and I have a much bigger appreciation for watercolor painting now. It feels very refreshing to try new stuff but I can't help but feel like this is just an excuse for me to not paint from imagination, I don't know but I like this image I think it turned out ok
