The YouTube tutorial I watched for this drawing demonstrated negative watercolor painting, but it was too hard for me to do it "negatively", so I used colored watercolor pencils instead and colored in the trees instead of the background.
That is hard to do. Esther Nowell taught us that one but I had difficulty. Watercolor painting was wonderful but not for me. I use acrylic paints instead - SO much easier and you can paint over mistakes or even the entire canvas if you don't like it.
YouTube platform is awesome. It has everything. Btw, my baking at the DOE was OJT, no formal education. Had a good mentor. Baking is not easy; especially getting up at 3:30am start work 5am. Eventually the baker developed carnal tunnel from kneading the dough. TG,I is landed a federal job later, work is more cerebral.

Interesting! Looks spooky to me.

Neat! I like the three dimensional look. At first glance I thought it was a figurine of coral. LOL

V, thank you. I only know how to copy.
Aunty, I know what you mean. Watercolor is not an easy medium to work with. But I so enjoy watching the effects emerge.
Annie, thanks.
Kat, took me 2 days to complete.
Susan, it is kinda spooky.
Chet, sounds like it was hard work. But good experience.
Izsmom, I thought it was cool looking too.
