Under-painting, two layers of watercolors. I am working on the Boga board (see the previous post), and I am painting on Arches hot press 140 lb watercolor paper. I do not know where this is going yet and I am spending quite a bit of time looking at it. The large format is bit inhibiting, but I am intent to push myself to stay with it.
I adjusted the photo saturation to black and white so that I can evaluate better what is developing. I can see that I have lot of middle value shapes and the piece needs dark values. I am thinking the area below the three upper vertical shapes in particular would create more interest. Well, I imagine I will find out when I start layering more colors and shapes.
