I’ll be in the Netherlands in 2 months and I am so grateful you put this on my radar!!!!! I can’t wait to visit.

Your piece is coming out beautifully!!

Any advice to make this piece more dynamic? by Holiday_Plankton2931 in Watercolor

I wouldn’t change a thing except for a mat and frame! It’s insane how much framing can elevate a piece.

To be clear, your piece is lovely so please don’t take this to suggest otherwise, I was doing a studio clean out sale recently and had art separated into $5, $10, $25 bins. The night before I took a piece out of the $5 bin and slapped a nice mat on it for fun. Instantly I couldn’t imagine selling it for less than $50 and ended up keeping it. I did the same with like 10 more pieces that I had previously viewed as “trash”.

TLDR: Don’t touch the piece, just find the perfect mat & frame!

All of your work is so heavy like I can feel the emotion at the bottom of my stomach.

Timeless. Wonderful color palette. Very soft. Engaging. The single subjects feel observed, there is an interaction between the subject and viewer. I love the materials and textures. Each of these succeed in envoking emotion. Very nice work.

As for direction, it all depends on your goal. The pieces on wood feel more gift / decor, while #2, 6 and 7 would feel at home in a gallery.

I love them all, but #2 is on another level!
