Hi my fellow steemians lovers of art!
Today I bring to you an artwork a little different of what I'm used to do.
An abstract landscape on watercolors.
When I did this, I was still without electricity due to the national blackout that happened on Venezuela ( If you wanna know more of what happened you can read my post about it here ) and since I didn't had anything to do, I wanted to draw, but, I usually just draw with references, I like to see what I'm drawing, or at least have things of what I can get inspired. And as I didn't had my laptop to search anything, my phone was dead and I had already drawn everything that was inspiring to me in my house, I started to just doodle in my sketchbook.
Sadly I cannot show you a picture of that first doodle on all the page because I did not have a camera due to the blackout, but it only was a lot of lines scribbled all over the page. From there, I thought it would be an interesting challenge to me if I could be able to pull forms and a sense out of that doodle.
So, I started to look at the scribbled lines, searching for some form that was waiting for me to take it out, and I started to see trees, a beach, clouds and a little ship. I marked everything with colored pencils, outlining everything that I saw in my doodle, it wasn't easy. Sometimes, I lost the track of the forms that I was creating, but I took them again on the road. It was fun, a good form to kill some time, and with more advance it was taking form of a pretty artwork.
I colored everything with colored pencils, but since they weren't adding well onto the heavy paper, I switched into water colors to building up more saturation and a solid color in every form. And the best part, in my opinion is how the watercolors did the job to maintain the same color but in different tonalities. It built more depth. It barely have it, but the one it has is thanks to watercolors hahaha. I can say that I like it on it's simplicity, it makes me happy, and relaxed in some way. And that's good.
Art it's to make you feel.
Here you can see more details
As you can see, I colored every section that the scribbled lines formed in different color pallets, depending on the form I wanted to pull out.
It was fun to do. And I think this is my first time doing something like this. so I hope you all like it. Sometimes cute things come out on a boredom moment.
I want to say too that I just got sing up in @Artopium , a website where you can buy and sell your art! I would love if you take a moment to see my profile and take and look, maybe you'll find something you like , and now you can buy a print of the artwork that I just show you in this post :D

I am so sad about the outages happening at the moment! The only redeeming thing (If one can think in these terms at the moment) is that it is pushing your artwork -perhaps in a different direction than normal, but, pushing it nonetheless.
I like the colorful sense of it and the whimsical things my eyes see make me smile. I wish you luck with your site where you show them off and I am going to sneak a peek over there to see what you are displaying!
Have a most awesome day!

Oh my... You are so sweet, thank you. At least I can tell you that for the moment a lot of people have electricity again. There are some places without light yet but the crisis is better now. I hope you like what I do!

I do! It's colorful and fun. It brings a smile to my face.
I like your art! It reminds me of the work of Pablo Picasso in the style of cubism, which I really like)
I didn't saw that, It looks like! I'm super glad you like it! Thank you

Something cool came off it
Making sense of your doodles worked out very nicely :)
It was a very bad experience, but yeah, some little things came out good of it, and I made a lot of drawing and art from that day. So yeah, at least that was good. I'm glad you like it! Thank you for reading

How creative and it looked like you were having fun with it too! Nice to try something new every once in awhile - kinda good we get bored every so often so it urges us to try new things.
Sorry to hear about that catastrophe happening in your home country!
I really like your artwork 👍

Wow! This is beautiful @zaidagrilli ! Perhaps your power outage was a gift in disguise, allowing you to create from within more deeply. I love this! ♥
expanding on your creativity is nice to see.
I like your work.
This painting turned out great. Excellent work. 💕
Awesome use of time during a power outage. :-)
Very nice artwork, created out of boredom and using different techniques than you're used to. It pays to force ourselves out of our box once in awhile.
Wonderful job @zaidagrilli
This is a lovely abstract art! I think the linework and your choice of colors is perfect! Kudos! 😊
Lovely to find forms in your doodles like that @zaidagrilli. And colour will always make us smile even in the most trying of situations. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
