The wonderful complexities of water make it a great source of painting inspiration just learn to look a little deeper.
Surprises are the best part of painting.
I ll find something that reveals a whole new visual insight. Water can be any color and, in fact, many colors at once. To re-create this phenomenon in pastels I follow a slow, analytical process, for the best surprises are usually discovered only with plenty of investigation and patience. I begin my approach to color with a few questions. Once I determine this, I can compare the relative value of the colors on my palette to the color I want to represent and try to match it.
