Have you visited ArtWanted.com? 

Conversing with a friend, she told me sometimes it is hard to find a place for the artworks bought, or simply the work doesn't go with a specific decor, so thought hmmmmm, What if you can print them and make them in to cards for your friends or as a gifts? even more...What if you can print it on a phone case? This idea of  art prints have been going on for a while, but of course finding a resourceful and trustful website  was a must. 

Sometimes because of time or pesos ...buying the original pieces is not possible, With an Art print you can customize it to your liking or sizes, and find interesting ways to show case your art. . This is and awesome opportunity to support other artist as well.

Print them on to anything, ordering your own prints at a lower cost. 

My experience online has thought  me  the possibilities are endless when it comes to Art. 

Your Welcome! Stop by and say hello

New Watercolor rose simple sketch painting

 
 

Watercolor Flower simple sketch rose painting 9 in  by 12 in

 

Titled: "Vintage a rose"



 
 
 
Simple watercolor sketch of a flower, used a simple approach, to start, you may need a number 3 bold, you can either use a graph or a tracer if you like,  The watercolors are diluted once applied in the paper on a dry surface and then dragged in with a second brush. The aim for this one was to apply shadow in the middle and extend to the rest of the background, it gives more flow, and even if is two subjects rather than one, using a triangular setting works well... it is important to know the basics.
 
 
Even though this is the practical part of a painting, I think is important to tell the history behind what we do, life's lessons on seeing beyond of what is in front of us and concentrating in what really matters, I'm starting to see the work growing  and been less controlling just letting it be...
