This is part 1 of yesterday's WCW...how to avoid MUD! I don't know if I'm guilty of making mud but I know I do too much too quickly. I think I need a little prompt card with all the tips and suggestions. I'm still a little unsure when it's ok to add more paint to a fairly dry surface. And did she wet the surface again after the first layer dried, to do more wet on wet? I've watched three times but truthfully, I get a bit lost. I am working on a little larger painting with the tree.
So this is my simple little painting, like her little thumbnails. Not much going on but I think I did alright with not over-working. I used some sparkly tissue paper with Brushos on, splattered with gold acrylic paint, for the sketch and today's WT. Always happy to use a metallic.

Great challenge combo. Lovely way to frame your painting. There was so much drying time this week. It took me way longer than usual. I guess I know now why I'm not so good at watercolor. I never wait that long to go in with the next layer.
