I had saved this watercolor from when I used to teach at ORLA. It was a demo showing them how to drop color onto a wet. The paper is a half sheet 140lb Strathmore cold press paper. The project was about letting the shapes be soft and then going back in to pull images out of the dropped color and
add details with a fine brush. Mine was to be a bouquet of imaginative flowers and of course, I never finished mine. Recently I started drawing with non-permanent ink black pen.
Last night at my Zen Ink class I added a little watercolor pencil and more non-permanent ink pen work.
When adding a slight bit of water - barely a damp brush - it moved the WC pencil and the ink. So I kept playing with water on the ink on the entire painting not just where I added WC pencil...
Keep arting - break the rules...
