Watercolor 3: Abstract, Summer 2026

This was an exercise in working fast, loose, and big. I like the colors in this and the movement in the sky. 

Reference: "Mystic Lake" by Lois Davidson

Another exercise in fast & loose. The sky is a basic wet-on-wet wash with a little bit of lifting, but everything else is painted with the edge of a credit card or a bamboo skewer. 

Reference:  "Frosted Peaks after a Snowstorm in Southwest Desert" by Peter Coskun

This was a cool little experiment, although the drops or alcohol didn't do what I thought they would.

This would have worked better (a) with less saturated washes, and (b) if I had had the patience to let it dry before putting the lines on top.
