[mirskov]

this week i got inspired by this cat. Check him out guys, if you're into that kind of painting!

Also in my quest of what to buy to start getting my feet wet in watercolor i ran across these two guys. Maybe old news for most of you but just wanted to share. Amazing!

Wow, those are amazing. I was curious, is this a good medium to learn color and to paint with?

err no lugh, not as good as oils or acrylics,
with gouache and watercolors, you not only ahve to handle the tones and other colorwork but yoiu also have to learn to control the medium. most beginners call gouache and Watercolors hard for these reasons.In anycase gouache is easier to handle than Watercolors , you basically approach it like oils. There arent many problems with oils or acrylics as a medium.but ofcourse if you want to anything is possible, I have started learning painting with watercolors.

Gread links man.
