Sertoma, CW, Nov & Dec, 2012

This is the watercolor after I added more color to the background.  I wet the background first and added burnt sienna horizontally. I added a little blue to the top and a little yellow to the bottom.    I worked on the horse pick and a little on the skirt and quite a bit on the face (added shadows).  I need to work on her shirt quite a bit and I need to add details all over.

This is the background for the pea plant.  I wet the paper, dropped in color, and covered it with wrinkled saran/plastic wrap.  I left it until dry.

I transferred the drawing of the pea plant and started painting - green yellow and blue green on the leaves and  permanent rose with a little cobalt on the flower.  I is just the start.
