Independent studies- trees

Whilst going in between exercises I wanted to take some time to study with water colours and only watercolours,  I took an image of two trees and I tried to recreate the slightness of them both and the dullness of both of the trees.

In this piece I just purely wanted to experiment with using just watercolours and nothing more. I focused on these two winter trees because I liked how slight they both were sat together. I wanted to experiment with lights and darks and using the whites against the black, I liked how easy it was to blend the colours together and create the colour I wanted and the texture I wanted.

If i was to do with piece again I would spend more time on the background and add feature to create the full image, I was happy with the outcome and will continue to use watercolours throughout this assignment.
