The War in the Willows - spring clean challenge 2024
Watercolor Challenge
I found this photo online. It’s an article about a fella called Doni Bisanzio saying how he had used watercolours. (if you took the picture or are Doni I apologise for using your work)
For those that can’t read the photo, the author starts with a primer, then gloss varnishes every layer. Starting light, then adding shading. And then using Watercolour pencils to add edge highlights
My thinking is to adapt this method, but using what I have at hand. Its been a year since the last Spring Clean Challenge and I still haven’t got any white spray primer, so I will be undercoating it by hand. I also don’t like gloss varnish so I will be using matt. What I do have is a vast collection of watercolour paints in various states of decay.
Wish me luck.
