133 Watercolours In 3 Days

133 Watercolours In 3 Days from Elliot Cowan on Vimeo.



I have a client function next week and wanted to make a little piece of art for everyone.
I bought these cheap little sketchbooks that seemed heavy enough to take watercolour then splashed them out one after the other.
There're some touch ups with brush pen.
Not all of them are brilliant, but they all have life and energy which is in the spirit of the thing.
Let me know if you have a favorite.

Hey man, that was great!

Can I ask about your process? Do you sketch gently, then color it, and then drawing the black ink lines in the end?

Cheers!

Hey Thomas.
The process was very basic.
I slapped down colour as quickly as possible (nothing gentle) and the inked the lines at the end as you suspected.
Glad you like it : )
