This is a super painting for those who want to learn to create an more abstract composition in a modern style while still enjoying the magic of watercolor paints.

It's a 'still life' but there are no vases of flowers or bowls of fruit. It's modern, suggestive and something you can create your own narrative from.

It will give the student a new way of looking at the use of watercolor paints and will help them to think about creating a composition of some of their favourite 'still life' objects. Maybe some souvenirs from a memorable holiday of occasion, to create a atmospheric picture as a gift or souvenir.

The color palette is limited and you will learn an approach to painting glass, smoke and how to plan objects for the b est effect.

What's more, it's perfect for those who like to paint in a more controlled way.
