Description
WIP background for Watercolor Poinsettia Negative Painting, by Conni Schaftenaar
Experimental approach to creating a background for a negative painting that started with diluting Pebeo masking and blowing it around into spidery tracings across the paper, then pouring pale pinks and blues across the sheet and touching in a little yellow while the pink and blue was still wet. Then sprinkled a little kosher salt over some areas and let it dry. At this stage, the poinsettia flowers and leaves are sketched it but not yet defined by negative painting - that's next! Gonna be a challenge, I think!
