I'm thinking so much harder now about art principles. My teachers have been telling me about composition and balance since day one but it's really, really clicking lately and I'm much stronger at applying everything I've been taught. However! Right now I'm watercoloring a still life with a stuffed octopus and 3 passion fruit
it's the BIGGEST DISASTER EVER

aaaaa these paints seriously don't do ANYTHING I want them to do and I have no clue how to make them behave, when I put this in front of the class on Wednesday it will be the most embarrassing assignment ever. But I'm really digging watercolor because it's been nearly a year since I've done real observational studies, and painting from life takes you off to a meditative place. Especially since I only watercolor 8-20 hours a week, so it feels fresh and new every time I sit down. I hope my teacher understands I'm terrible at painting but trying, maybe she'll cut me some grade slack 8(
