Member's Albums Monet style
Claude Monet and Cammile Pisaro are two of my favourite artists. Both do great snow scenes. This is an A5 sketchbook impressionist painting in what I hope is the style of Monet using just a couple of colours. The frame, again, is just simulated from Microsoft Paint as this is just a sketch and not a painting. I like its idea and may try a painting based around it later.
Indeed, indeed, Repentance oft before, I swore---but was I sober when I swore?
And then and then came Spring, and Rose-in-hand, My thread-bare Penitence apieces tore.

Nice! I like it a lot!
Grateful to Jesus for everything! That is very good. I tried to do an impressionistic painting and it came out horrible. I didn't even take a picture of it so I can't show. I threw in the dumpster.

ps..I've thrown many an effort away in the past. All part of the frustration that is art...

Is ErnstG still a member here? I just looked through his album and he is one very talented painter. Some really terrific work that should inspire many.

He's still a member but he hasn't posted in a long time. Yes he is an amazing artist.

Beautiful! Thanks for those tips, I may try it some day. What sort of watercolor paper do you use?

Hi Liz. I Almost always 300 gsm 140lb cold pressed (textured if I can get it) watercolour paper. Less than this tends to "cockle" and I always tape the edges down to a board. The stuff I get here in UK is not the best quality, which comes out quite expensive, but it isn't bad. It's made by Crawford and Black but there are so many makes.

I've added a just finished small painting (approx 10" x 8") to this thread. This is a watercolour impressionist style because Monet is my art hero.
I used an old black and white photograph as a reference as Monet died back in 1926.
I'll find some fault with it later (I always do), but here it is.
