Painting a Still Life with a Glass Vase

I agree that painting a glass object in watercolor can be complicated because of too many reflexes, isn't it !? But, for me, it's the most exciting part of the painting process. The flow of paintbrush strokes creates the form and texture of the glass vase - isn't that magic!? As you can see in the video, I am painting right away with the brush, which allows me to feel free, rather than coloring within the lines. But the feeling of freedom goes together with uncertainty. I am always unsure about the painting result. I push myself not to fear making mistakes. I am sure the sense of fear is the biggest enemy of the creative process. Do not think about the imperfections in your painting. Follow your creative flow - trust it! The practice of painting is only a pathway that opens our creative skills.
