Water Color Workshop

Water Color Workshop went so awesome, It was successful as there was so enthusiastic people. most of them were doing water color painting first time and they done it well.

First we gave people handouts prepared by Kaumudi Ma'am she was the instructor for this work shop. and then ma'am told them some basics tecniques and gave a demo how to use use those techniques, people followed the instruction given to them, there was disscussion about lights and shadow. First people try water color on cartridge paper , so that they got feeling of water color, flow, opacity etc. people try it and then we gave them water color paper and people enjoyed it.

Our main agenda was to give feel of water colors to people via teaching them techniques.

One, two, three

All the paintings below have been done with poster colours, which is an opaque medium and with hindsight, water colours would have been much better.

One:
Landscape in only one colour - brown. I feel the clouds and islands have turned out nicely, but the water on the horizon is too dark and that closest to the viewer is a bit light. Perhaps a principle of colorimetry could set things right! This one's the simplest and probably the most beautiful of the three.

Two:
Apart from the black in the huts, I've used only two colours - brown and green in painting this landscape. Owing to the bad picture quality, the sky appears absolutely bland; it is (slightly) better in the original. Many things could have been better, especially the nearer mountain and the shrubs.

Three:
Made out of three colours - yellow, blue and vermilion (primary colours), this is the worst of the three, and the picture quality worsens it further. Absence of bright colours and my laziness in changing the water regularly shows up!
