I took this picture along a path I use almost daily. Although I have loved drawing and painting since I was a child, I've only recently started drawing more frequently. I have used watercolour to do colour washes over pen drawings, but want to do more. I am struggling to find a good way to practice. There are lots of inspiring scenes around my home near Brussels, but I get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things I have to think of when planning a watercolour painting. I would welcome tips on how to organize practice. Can you practice seperate bits and then put them together in a finished painting?





I agree with the comments in general. It is a fine work and shows your talent. I like the white lines used in the fence and grass. I would consider simplifying it. You are including all the fenceposts and it feels busy. Also the trees hanging in from the front lose the depth that is seen on the more far away trees in the upper left hand corner.
