Watercolour window with reflections.


These images are created using watercolours and pencils.
First of all I selected and stretched some paper.
Then I used a mixture of blues from my paint box to create a watercolour wash.
I then applied salt to the paper to experiment with drawing the colour as it dried.
I found that this assisted with the variegation of the blue across the paper. Leaving behind a rough texture which was interesting to work on top of with the pencils.
I aim to further develop this technique and explore the theme of reflections and architectural windows.
