My watercolor creations

Here you will find my watercolor creations. Each work is used to illustrate a text on my blog. In this way, image and word become one.

The colors in my recent watercolors are a bit more pronounced than in my earlier works. By using more intense pigments and less water, my paintings convey more impact.

Curious how to make these watercolors?

On another page you can see how they are created step by step. The color on these photos has turned out a bit light for the time being. For my next trials I will use a little more pigment, and add a little less water so that the color comes through better.

Two professional sites that explain and show the basic techniques for beginners very clearly are those of Staedtler and iHobby. Although they promote their own materials, you don’t have to purchase anything to make full use of their clear and accessible explanations.
