Description
Fantasy Forest in Watercolor, by Conni Schaftenaar
For the brief summer session, our watercolor class is focusing on FUN! We are using drip art, spatter art, textural art, using various tools and methodologies to do something different. I have several works in process, in this one I used Pebeo Mask (the Pen version!) to draw my trees. Once the mask was dry, I added in the sectional colors at the top to make the tree tops, very intense and wet, and sprinkled salt on those sections. Then I allowed the lower section to drip and run. After the initial drying, I went back in with the darker blue to add in dripped shadows under the trees. I wasn't sure how this would turn out when I started, but it was fun to do and I love the colors and textures and blends I achieved!
