Tonight I had the watercolor painting class and it was my second class. I had to say that this time it was harder. I had to draw the draft with the pencil and then colored it. It is OK if you see it from some distance but it looks terrible if you come close to see it I hope I can make some progress as time goes by. I still prefer to oil painting much more as watercolor is much more difficult for me. Besides, oil paintings are usually much more worthy

It is difficult to draw it in a short time. The class lasts 1:30 hours but time went by so fast

I really like this. Many photos look funny if you are up close to them. I think you have a lot of talent.

@youless I meant to say 'many paintings' but I put 'many photos'. Sorry about that. And I'm sure it won't be long and you'll have a really nice one.

Don't sell yourself short, you have a LOT of talent. You need to remember that this is your second class and to produce a painting this beautiful shows how much talent you have. All of our famous artists were once in the position you are in and felt the way you feel right now. Their work progressed to become famous works of art and are hanging in museums. I remember doing oil painting with my Mom. We drove to a creek to paint the creek. She did a fairly good painting of the creek...well my painting....turned out to be of an egg plant, all in various shades of purple. We laughed about my egg plant all the way home. She framed it and hung it with pride as if it were a Van Gough. No matter the art piece, if it is done with love and caring like the one you posted it is worthy of being called art.

Thanks for your encouragement. May I have a look at your mom's painting? Besides drawing my own paintings, I also like to look at others and I think I can learn more from them Does your mom still paint today?
