Painting - Watercolor On Paper
Description
This is a particularly dream-like painting of a sailboat on the water, almost lost in the gold of the day with the reflection shadowing it along the way. This original is signed on paper and, unframed, the dimensions are 16 x 12. I enjoyed painting this as I made a huge mess. First, water was slopped on so that the paper was extremely wet and then the reds, yellows and blues were applied. The fun part began when I turned the paper to the side, allowing the colors to blend nad bleed off the edge. After the background dried, I masked the reflection I wanted to cover and then was able to paint around it before pulling it off to show the colors in between the blacks. In between, I painted the sailboat and did it directly on top of the colors already there because I wanted it to have a translucent feel to where I even rubbed much of the paint off. This painting is on cold-pressed Arches paper and unframed.
