"I am seeking. I am striving. I am in it with all my heart." ~ Vincent van Gogh I added a background wash and beefed up some of my line work today. Sometimes you just have to try things out and not worry about 'ruining' your piece. There is no other way of learning. Which way do you like this watercolor sketch better, with or without a background?

“Sometimes the little opportunities that fly at us each day can have the biggest impact.” ~ Danny Wallace I know this is true in my life, how about you?
Day 37 ~ SE-37-25
“I can’t imagine anything better that might happen in a person’s life than for them to start paying attention to birds. To become aware of this magical world that exists all around us, unnoticed by many but totally captivating for those who know its secrets, has to be one of the greatest gifts of life on Earth.” ~ Kenn Kaufman
💖 Day 36 ~ SE-36-25 🥰
“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in today's world. It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.” ~ Dr. Seuss Here's SE 30-35 with color applied.
