Nick Kole Learns to Watercolor






Well, this semester I've been teaching myself how to watercolor.
These are the first three of a series of twelve watercolor creature/character designs I'm working on for class. Generally speaking I'm developing some of these in the Alfonse & Domingo-verse...so some of these may be reappearing.

Below are some watercolor studies from a few weeks back. The landscapes are 1-hour each and the portrait is an in-class model portrait.





Cheers!

-Nick

Haha, thanks alot, man :) It's cool to see another Christian artist, definitely very encouraging. And yeah, with blogger it seems kinda hard to respond to comments seeing you don't get notified. Thanks for adding me to your links as well. Seeing your watercolour works really makes me itch to experiment with it as well. Hope to see more great stuff from ya. God bless :)

well, I guess learning goes really fast, doesn't it? It looks to me like you're more of an water-color artist than apprentice :P I like the paintings very much :D
btw, I found your blog through your dA page :)
