A Garden View Challenge Septembre 2026

Every month, our watercolor group comes together for a special challenge. Our admin selects and shares a landscape for everyone to download.

From that moment on, each artist works on their own interpretation, quietly and independently, without seeing what others are creating.


Then, on the 27thΒ of the month , something magical happens. We all post our finished watercolors on the sameΒ day.


By sharing our work at the sameΒ time, we keep our creativity pureβ€”free from influenceβ€”and celebrate the incredible variety of styles, choices, and techniques that emerge from a single subject. Same landscape. Different eyes. Endless possibilities.

It’s an excellent contribution from you all ,and great to see your different interpretations of the scene. Sorry for the technical disruption - unfortunately AI is not sufficiently clever enough to understand the difference between a moderator’s comments and genuine spam! Hopefully things are back to normal now.

August monthly challenge

posting for Walt (who has signed up but not been approved yet)

Walt says: The first thing I did was choose where to save the whites. I made a point of that and working lightly.

After that, it was all about getting the texture of the foliage. And varying my hold on the brush -- getting different strokes and movements to claim the space. I purposely curved the path to pull the eye more assertively, and let it dwell, rather than rush straight in. I enjoyed the exploration into mixing my own greens. I think that's starting to work It was fun. Thank you.
