Description My first real watercolor painting. This was done in my independent study course. The barnacles were a pain in the kiester........
I have also found that watercolors are really fun, apparantly my teacher was amused because I don't paint with them like "traditional watercolors" since I don't use the transparency in obvious ways. I was never good at keeping colors faint (as they often are with watercolors) Though I did take advantage of layering transparencies along with other special effects. Such as salt and spraying it by flicking a paint-soaked toothbrush

Great handle of chiaroscuro! Nice contrast, and lovely blending of the subject into the background. You have a great eye for the use of color!
