This painting was done with the techniques I learned during a 3 day workshop with Don Andrews. He is quite famous and a very successful watercolorist. He gave 100% of himself to the class, doing a demonstration three times a day! It was a lot to absort but so worthwhile. We were shown how to put figures in our landscapes which is not easy. Learning the proportion of the human body is the first step to successfully painting a figure. Then the special use of color, shading along with keeping the white of the paper all add to the ability to create a 'figure in landscape'.
