Copy of Carles Pellejero watercolor

I found a watercolor by Carles Pellejero that I liked and made a copy of it. I like the looseness of it and the lost edges, especially where the bottom of the building merges into the street. The figures were merely suggestions but they read clearly.

I also made a watercolor of three guys on a road crew. A few weeks ago, I took a photo of them shoveling gravel out of a truck as it moved slowly along the shoulder. Uploaded this to 30x30directwatercolor on Facebook and IG. 30x30directwatercolor is an online group that paints a direct watercolor every day and shares it with the group. Direct watercolor means drawing directly with the brush, without pencil lines. It’s a great way to improve your watercolor skills.

  1. I really like these, Bill, both of them. I was curious to see the original Carlos Pellejero watercolor, found his website and several of his blogs, but couldn’t find this particular one. But I found lots of others to lose myself in!

    I got the idea he lives in Barcelona. I’m going to send links to Noah. Maybe they’ll run into each other!
