Color has taken possession of me

 I have been doodling with ink and watercolor on paper all my life. It's my way of stirring up my imagination to see what I find hidden in my head. I call the results dream pictures, fantasy sketches, and even brain-sharpening exercises. - Maurice Sendak

These are my favorite water color artworks. (thank you google images :)) As I share more art with you, you'll realize i live in warm colors. I love oranges reds yellows and the fusion of these colors. To be honest, up until recently when someone said watercolor, the first thing that pops into my mind is the elementary set of poster paints everyone gets when they are five and proceed to mix the colors into browns eventually :

However after sifting through artwork like the ones above I realize the magnitude of the potential of watercolor! When I start painting again, I'll ATTEMPT watercolor. For all you bedroom artists out there please leave tips!




This is my absolute favorite because for some reason it reminds me of home ! 
(u kno...cuz i'm jamaican....an he's a rasta child.....ah forget it. lol )


p.s. when i get better at describing art pretentiously, ill start making douchey comments like....'pay attention to blending of pigments that create a more sensous than cerebral imagery....." :D
