Quite difficult to paint waves in aquarella, and I made few mistakes.

But my preoccupation was not particularly related to the watercolor technique I have to achieve, but to the significance of frequently used expressions like: take the wave, on wave or catch the wave and their psychological meaning.
It is said that life offers you opportunities to take advantage of. As I know, for most of the people, what is difficult is actually to take decisions.

Being on the wave means you are at the right time with the right people in advantageous circumstances. Isn't true?

These were some of my thoughts making this watercolour drawing.

Take a look to the steps I followed to complete this watercolour painting!

*In an ocean of despair,

I could catch my wave.*

Beautiful post, and I can connect to it very well. Steemit definitely was/is such a wave for me. When I found out about it through one of Peter's posts, I didn't even have to think, just acted! Same when I stumbled across Sola... although there I don't have any idea, if it will be any good. Just feels interesting though..

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

interesting - I am losing count of all the sites you are on, lol - maybe publish a list. I got onto bescouted because of you

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Haha... says the king of social networking! BeScouted is cool, also because of its owner David. Sol is just a thingy I came across following a post on steemit. Its easy and we seem to be on early.. no idea, where its going. Give it a try... you can also check out this post I made about it first.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

it looks quite dynamic.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Isn't that the characteristic of the waves?

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย (edited)

if you know how to paint them properly, that is! we are not by default able to express this in paintings, what we see in nature. thats why I liked your painting.

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

very good art drawing

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

Thank very much!

great work - quite a turbulent wave, I thought of Hokusai https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa
the finished piece is stunning!

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

My wave is a shy attempt that reminds us that our achievements depend sometimes on intuition, boldness and risk. I like Japanese art and Hokusai is sublime! :)

ย  ยท ย 7 years agoย 

I don't see any mistakes, for me this is perfect. You are very talented. You have my follow. Keep it up!:)
