Ten-minute watercolor sketch

(C) 2017 Dale DiMauro

Inside the cover sheet of these watercolor blocks that they sell these days is prime space to make notes, record ideas and make quick drawings. I have used many watercolor blocks from a company called Arches, which has been around for centuries.

This is a quick watercolor sketch I made between paintings as I was inspired to see a little Spring in my life. For a while I have been trying to utilize the atmospheric qualities of light, mist and snow in my paintings. Watercolor is such a good media to exploit these qualities.

I have utilized this space to take notes on framing, sketch out compositional studies, doodle and document color combinations which I intend on using in the future.
