Simple little picture that I painted today. Not much to say about it. I wanted to practise painting transparent colours and I really felt like painting some bubbles.

The painting was too pale and the bubbles were't visible, so I had to add some contrast. I'm not still quite happy whit the result.

Sorry for all the simple and small practise pictures in the row. I’m really busy at the moment whit all the reading – not much time for the bigger ones. I have already a bigger picture idea in mind, but I have to wait for the summer before I start painting it.

Hope you like it!

This picture can not be called 'simple' , it has a rich ( metaphorical) concept. Absolutely love it! Nice technique as well. I MUST fave it

I like the idea of the picture too but I had to edid it quite alot to make it look like this. The background was too pale and the coloured bubbles melted into the background.
I'm really glad you like it.

Practise is the key. Studying techniques from books also helps a lot.
(For instance to protect the white paper under the bubbles and the stars I used masking fluid. ((Painted on paper. After it has dried the paint will no longer attach to the paper and you can paint the background with out worrying. After the background has dried you can simply scratch the masking fluid away and paint on the nice and clean white surface.)) I learned that technique from a book.)

(I hope that I understood your comment right. The babel fish is a horrible translator. It traslated the comment like: "envy, envy envy. Why I can't paint like that?")
