Description OMG, my first watercolor painting going up on DA! Yay! This is the first one I made with my watercolors I got this christmas.

After taken a photo, put it in my pc and edited it to make it look like it first did, the colors are nice, but off. The light blue got white/light yellow and so on xD

Earlier I have only used watercolors in school, and well... You never really get to do art there.... At least not with our teacher... Half this semester we've been drawing bowls and bottles, the same, once a week, only changing colors a little..... Terrible. Really, just lame.

Anywayz, I'm real happy with the outcome, cuz half way through it looked like a total disaster. And that's why I never show people my undone works. Cuz they suck. So it's embarrassing. Yeah... Well, even this small thing took like 3 hours to do, cuz I had to wait for it to dry all the time.

Used watercolors for the colors, black ink pen (or something xD) for the dragon, and white acrylic paint for the white shines.

Woo! Watercolors! My favorite thing to paint with. I love how the clouds look, how they just fade into the sky. And the silhouette of the dragon looks awesome!

I redid the silhouette a few times before I was content, I'm happy you like it. I'm new with watercolours, but I hope to get better xD

XD Well, they aren't too hard to get used to! They're one of my favorite things to use, I just don't generally paint a whole lot... I should start more. lol

Same... It takes time, well I guess most art does, but if it's just with pencils, then it's more oh I wanna draw that, lets do it! while watercolors is more like... you ought to plan it... Or at least that's how it's for me xD

XD Oh, no, it's not just you. I know that feeling of spontaneous "awesome idea" and you just have to do it, whereas painting it takes a little more time to figure out how to make the entire piece come together.

Absolutely brilliant work!
I really like the effect of using acrylics for the shine.
