Continuing Watercolor (A, S, O 2015)

I added another layer of masking - adding leaf shapes, flower "dots" and grass shapes at the bottom.

I glazed the background with yellow.  I added white gouache to add highlights as well as scrubbing to get highlights.  I added more dark feather shapes to the rooster.  I painted the eye and added detail arond the eye and beak areas.  I added more red as well.  He is getting there.

I glazed greens and yellow on the background and on the stem, leaves, and buds.  I glazed some yellow and a tiny bit of green on part of the flower.  I started to add detail to the top left bud with green and a tiny bit of red.
