A new watercolor painting in progress!
Yes, I still love watercolor! That last exercise to loosen up got me going! I am doing a full sheet landscape from a photo I took at Monterey, California. I am working from top to bottom. I used liquid mask for the clouds (removed now) and the ocean foam in the lower right corner (still on - it is orange colored mask).
The trees were fun to do. Very loose, flicking movements with a pointed round brush. The rocks I am doing with a flat brush. I am just beginning to put in the orange and red colors of the iceplant flowing down the rocky coast. When I am done with that color and it is dry, I will put in the greens of the iceplant. I didn't want the green and red to mix and make muddy brown.
I still have more rocks to put in on the lower half of the painting.
