Glazing Study

Glazing Study, Watercolor, 8.5 x 11
This was a workshop demonstration of glazing - creating layers of transparent watercolor. The blues and purples that were the first layers come subtly through the other layers, and pop out in the foreground as the lighter stalks of weeds and grasses.

Hillary, LOVE the effect of the yellow flowers! Something I've been wanting to try for a long time. Did you use masking? If so, what kind and how did you apply it? Do you have a demo anywhere? This kind of effect is very easy to mess up! I'm so impressed! BRAVO!!! RoseAnn
