Watercolour painting #1

Three years ago, while I was still in high school, I found myself bored during a school vacation, stuck in the hostel with nothing fun to do. While browsing YouTube, I stumbled upon those soothing 1-minute landscape watercolor painting shorts. Intrigued, I ordered a watercolor set with 12 colors, brushes, and some books online.

I painted a few pages, but as school started, the watercolor set was tossed into a corner and forgotten. Fast forward to June 2024, I've decided to pick up this activity again. This post will be an overview of my paintings thus far.

I often come across video suggestions for watercolor painting on YouTube, and one artist I follow closely is 'Artwork By S'. This artist creates acrylic painting tutorials suitable for beginners, which I attempted to replicate using watercolors.
