Attempt? Looks to me like you've got the acrylics down. Nice.
The secret to mastering watercolors is to let it do whatever it wants to do. If the end result doesn't turn out, it's blotter paper. If the colors run and puddle into a presentable composition, claim you meant to do that.

Very good. Don't think I have ever heard the term "control watercolors"
before. Isn't that the magic, uncontrollable medium?

Lol! Yes! I did mean that as a joke and figured most of you clever souls would pick up on that. It's really the most whimsical and lovely of mediums. But I have a control issue; I want to control everything! So watercolor is a good medium to help me let go.
@Freespirit64 i think maybe i need to pick that up.
@Freespirit64 I have a control issue too. That's why i spin and knit: there are do-overs if the wool does not want to comply!

I've got to relearn how to crochet. Damn it.
Okay, Monet, Manet, and all those other people; move over! Look out!

Is the one of the sunflowers is that on canvas? That's a really nice painting.

Thank you! I go through "subject phases" and this was the flower phase. I'm currently in a rabbit phase...I'll share some of those shortly...they're just fun.
