Continuing Watercolor August/September/October 2016

Worked on the head area.  Added darks, shadows, and some details.

This is the upright painting on the easel.  I started with the skin using a blue, yellow, and 2 reds (warm and cool).  These colors are VERY light and form an under painting.  I put the yellow in the white areas and the blue in the shadow areas.  I pulled the color out into the background.  I allowed drips but they are optional.

I added a warm yellow over the petals.  I then painted the middle part with a dark.  I worked on darkening a few shadows as needed.
