I want to give a card to one of my teachers and wanted to decorate it personally, I have never been into painting, but I don’t want to get anyone else to paint for me. Wish me Luck

      One could say that art in general is an act of making messes. That looks like a beautiful experiment in color. I’m new to painting myself. I’ve found some inspiration in the youtube channel Imperfect Paintings. You might find it inspiring as well.

      Noooooo! What you see as mess, I see as courage with exploring colors, shapes, and composition, and learning how to mix, layer, and blend with watercolor. Some of what you just did by accident, like the red/yellow blend and drip to the right, other artists deliberately add as “texture” and “interest” and work very hard to get. Just wait til you start making cabbages and getting blooms (the weird dark lines you get from puddling water in one place). People work to get those too. It’s just a matter of getting them where you want them to be, which is a whole 'nother matter, lol.

      This is a great start. Keep going!
