Question for any watercolor artists: I'm pretty new to the watercolor game, do you folks usually ink AFTER you paint? Or do you ink FIRST and then paint over it?

@nohdee Hey thanks! Tried out a quicker style then my usual tiny-brush-rendering-style

Arthur Campling · 1 Oct 2024, 06:14

@Henry-Compton Nice piece! I did read that Peter De Seve first does a pencil-drawing, then paints an undertone (like burnt umber) and then he draws with ink, paints some more, and then draws again with ink. I've got a guide from him that I can send to you if you would like?

@Arthur-Campling Wow, that’s such an interesting process, I didn’t expect that. Yea if you sent me that guide, I’d appreciate it a lot!

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone for submitting art this month for my prompt! It's been so fun seeing all your creative ideas and interpretations! You guys are so talented; it really motivates me to see all your beautiful work and makes me want to try harder and grow as an artist.

I love that SVS gave us students the chance to submit suggestions and I'm looking forward to more interactivity with the new site launch this month.

Much gratitude!

@menalkhan I REALLY like how you rendered this one, everything reads really well even without color and has nice depth. Really inspiring style here!

I dig the outlines around the characters, gives me Paper Mario vibes. I could totally see this art style in an indie platformer game.

@Enni-Heikura I loved the little video!
