Contour Figure Watercolor

Contour drawing coupled with watercolor painting on D’Arches 140 LB. CP. Done at the life study sessions. Think and pattern after Daniel Novotny’s watercolors. Bring gear + hair dryer.

Start boldly, then work back into subtleties. In the end more about removing and cutting back into the piece than adding.

Aquapasto is a watercolor medium that I have in my “kit”. Remember the YouTube video that explored this medium for watercolors. I can augment the watercolor to act like an acrylic where I can mix it like an acrylic apply somewhat thickly and finally cut back into it. Bring Chinese white with you for enhancement.
