102-watercolor painting of old barn



I did this watercolor painting of the old barn,today for a challenge at wet canvas..I am picking up my brushes after a long time and I hope to improve my painting skills by participating in WDEs at the wet canvas forum.I realized while doing this painting how you lose the easy strokes in painting when you have a break in doing art on paper.

090-093-Designs on paper






I love to draw patterns with pen on paper and these are a few of them.
Drawing freehand on paper relaxes you and increases your creativity.
The designs become the base for larger patterns or spark the process for other patterns.
