I’ve been painting watercolors for 30 years now. It got to a point where it became second nature with my mixed media pieces. They were the foundation for something bigger and better to be built upon. I lost sight of the beauty of the medium itself and the possibilities. That changed after my workshop last week.
The methodical layering of glazed, over a burnt umber/ultramarine blue underpainting creates so much depth.
So here I am, practicing to solidify this new technique. Trying out faces and objects and seeing them come alive with each glaze layer (and there are a shit ton of them)
