This is just a quick post so I can share my current work in progress. My first art love was pen and ink; my second, watercolor, mostly because I wanted to color in my pen and ink. I have enough love to go around for anything creative, but, when I painted these, I realized just how relaxing it was to come back to watercolors. I am doing something different. Instead of inking it, I plan on using a combination of watercolor pencil and regular colored pencil to finish these butterflies off.
Because there's always the chance I might ruin my art at a stage where I like it, especially when changing mediums, I try to take a scan of my project before I proceed. I may mess up the original, but scanning at least gives me a chance to have a partial do over since I can print just about anything out on my large format printer. This mentally frees me to experiment and reduces the number of half finished projects I have laying around. Plus, its a good way to document my progress.
I'll post the finished art if it turns out successfully.
