I painted this watercolor moon for @Kwality570 in the IYP swap. It was from a book that I got for Christmas and I’m so happy with how it turned out. I’m especially happy with how the glow around the moon turned out (I spent to much time getting that just right). I loved the finished piece so much that I’ve had it up on my wall for weeks while waiting to be sent so I could enjoy it

The glow of the moon and the water are wonderful! Did you use shimmery paint?

No shimmery paint, the entire piece is done in indigo with a little bit of Bleed Proof white in the water to help boost the reflections. The glow around the moon is the white of the paper.

So gorgeous and atmospheric! I haven’t mastered using the white space of the paper yet in watercolor so I really appreciate the technical aspects of this piece!

Stunning! If you hadn’t told us that you water colored it, I would swear it was a photo.

I agree that moon glow is awesome and impressive it’s the paper peeking through! The reflection and the little branches on the left are my second favorite part.

SO IMPRESSIVE! You should be proud. It looks amazing. The use of the white paper is incredible. I have always been too intimidated to try that. Gorgeous!
