We Painted The Same Thing! (Collab with Rose Lynn Draws)

Rose Lynn Draws reached out to me on Instagram and asked if I wanted to do this fun collaboration with her. In this video, we both paint the same thing, from the same reference photo - just in our own way! I used ink sketch & watercolor wash, and she used gouache. 

Make sure to check out Rose Lynn Draws channel for her painting of the same photo, too!

The photo that she picked for us to reference was taken by Andres Gallardo of La Muralla Roja, or ‘The Red Wall’. This postmodern apartment complex is located in Calpe, Spain and if you google it, there are so many beautiful photographs of this building.

Important note: Our paintings were both done for personal study and education, not to be sold or reproduced for sale.
