Victoria Olson Art – Watercolor, Egg Tempera & Oil

Hi there.  This Blog is all about  painting.  I’ve been painting for many years and I’d like to share my thoughts on how to approach painting or better said, how I approach painting.  How do you get better at painting?  The answer is – painting everyday. We don’t have a lot of time, but even a twenty-minute painting is better than nothing and watercolor is perfect for this. Today my objective was to paint the still life fast enough before the light changed without doing a preliminary drawing because I’m practicing drawing and painting at the same time.. This blog is called Painting Life because I only use watercolor to paint in direct from life.
