Still... I need to brush up and create some new artwork for this project so I forced myself to knuckle down at the weekend. This painting is going to be of a magical tree - an Oracle from 'The Hidden World' but this particular image wont make it in... it's a warm-up. I used reference photos of trees and bluebells (some taken in my Grandfather's garden in England this May) as a guide.
I'll share the finished painting in a day or two. Criticism and advice always well received. :)

Oh that's beautiful! I love the little owls on the left too. :)
I've never been brave enough to try watercolours, I'm always afraid I'll mess something up!
Thanks a lot! Watercolours aren't too tricky - just make sure you use the right type of paper and use them thinly with water - don't try to use them like acrylics. (Not that I really know what I'm talking about - there are some brilliant watercolour artists out there!) :)
I've found with watercolor in my experience, it's not been something you unlearn, especially if you really enjoy it.
You've had the set since childhood?! I guess they don't lose their quality after a while?
