Choosing a Subject for Your Watercolor Journal

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Libby Caldwell and I am her to tell you, about water coloring journaling! For this journal peace I am going to use a whole spread, and I need to decide what I am going to keep in, and what I am going to leave out. So I am painting though this window. I don't want to have the central window post in it. I do want to have the drapes at the side. I am going to put those in first. Which will give a good boarder to this. Then I am going to put the very top of the window frame. It?s like a frame around a painting. I am going to put the window seal down here. I am going to leave space to put this, this is a peace I brought in from outside. Beginning with the rocks. I just picked my favorite peace here, which is snoopy rock which is to the right with his little nose. I am going to start right here on my page. I don't want too much sky. This is a very very ruff sketch, I am not going to get much detail in it at this point. I am going to do that when I get around to painting."
