Misty Dawn

 


This was painted during a workshop I took with Steve Rogers. He believes in painting from dark to light, which is the opposite of what watercolorists usually advise. I learned several valuable tips as the workshop progressed. One was to change the color of an object as you fill it in by adding yellow ocher or raw umber. Another was to place warm colors against cool therby creating interest, a third lesson was to purposely include warm colors when doing a marine painting. The best was how to successfully paint reflections in water. Very worthwhile experience.
