| Black Rock Sands, Wales Transparent watercolour on archival paper 36 x 29.5 cm. 14 x 11.5 in. Available for purchase |
 |
| My value sketch |
 |
| Masked lines of foam under rocks at right. Painted blue sky first wet-in-wet with cobalt and phthalo. blue. Sand and rocks started w/w with quin. burnt orange, quin. pink and cobalt blue. |
 |
| Clouds done w/w with mix of aureolin, quin. pink and cobalt blue. Initial washes on rocks using mixture of orange, violet and indanthrone. |
 |
| Mostly done, but still looked somewhat bland ... |
 |
| ... so I deepened clouds, darkened rocks' shadows and did a w/w application of indanthrone, violet and orange. I think it adds some lovely depth to the work. I hope you enjoyed seeing the painting evolve, and thank you for dropping by! |
