Behind the scenes – Preview
Here is a sneak preview of a big watercolor I started today. This piece is kind of an “experiment.” I’ve never painted a watercolor this big (30x22in; 76x56cm). I’m also applying the paint in a way that combines watercolor and oil painting. Unlike watercolor,

I am not painting big areas of solid color.
-
I am mixing some colors on the paper (not before I use them).
-
My painting is standing upright instead of lying down.
