Color and paint trials
Color and paint trialsI

I’m having a good time with a large project. Can you tell that I’m ready for winter to be done?

A bit of the unfinished piece is shown underneath my 5×7 record of palette and paint, which also has some trial techniques. For instance, the two raw ochre rectangles  at the bottom of the sheet compare the results of penciled lines with sgraffito lines in the watercolor wash.
