| I added another round of masking fluid to make leaf shapes and more flower shapes. This will freeze the colors under the masking when I add more color/value. After that was dry I made a second pass with the paint adding some darker values. |

| I started adding values to the waddle and comb to give the rooster some form. It of course needs more. |

| This will start as a value study. I mixed rose and ultramarine. Since ultramarine is a granulating color, the colors separate when wet. For the first pass I worked on the flower dry and the background was wet first. I am concentrating on the values and some detail. Do keep the values a bit lighter since we will be adding color and value later. We can always darken easily, but lightening an area is difficult. |
