with a spatula
This is a new Project "under going"; so now this is my first try out,
First Final result of two from this process:(see 2nd additional result at the bottom)
Following is the material needed;
The requirement for this process is; "molding paste" which is needed for mix and créate a color paste with watercolors basuically, I did use different size of them, an a watercolor pencil to sketching above the hot press paper
In the following picture you can see how I´m mixing modeling paste and watercolor in some order
to conform the variegated background, kind of graded wash if you will, containing more tan one color, I did start this particular painting from the top
Now with the big size spatula, I´m taking the color paste to apply over the dry paper accordingly.
It is important to mix the colors in advance, lay the colors in bands and wet your fingers a Little bit to mix one into another , to make its appearance more fade and don´t try to work onto the paint while is drying, lay the palest and primary colors first whenever posible, it is not mandatory with this process but I rather work according the base color underpainting either light or dark
In this case the sky is first tan the sea and the beach color is first also tan the sea depending the effect you want to achieve in the unión main color bands
This process is quite versátil because I can add pure molding paste without any color to make color variations where I need, After you be satisfied, let it dry it doesn´t takes so much time
You can graduate color with your spatula either adding or scrapping color molding paste, and/or add colors in accordance the color Wheel light colors over dark ones but not overdo or the paint will become stirred up and muddy
This is the watercolor spatula process complete, after add the dark figure with a Little size spatula, and reinforce the White of lamp the texture is quite interesting for a watercolor painting
After this first stage completed, and base in past experiences I wanted to enhance the painting with brush lines in order to soft some áreas, but I left spatula texture in other ones to see what happen, and this is the final additional result
