Painting 33

Ref 969.- Watercolor;.- Texturing .-Sanding a dry wash
This technique is done on a dry wash and works very well to retrieve specks of the white of the paper. It’s also often used to render the effect of light on water
I took advantage of this technique to sand some specific areas but basically the
trunk of the front tres,  (after sanding operation I overlay yellowish color to reinforce the mood)

The sandpaper I use is; drywall sandpaper grit #100, you need to take extra care in your first try, but result it is pretty good
The initial color wash it was first lifted off selectively with a tissue paper  to carve lighter areas to complete light texturing. and also partially basically for branches, the background trunks were lifted off with a thirsty brush while paper still wet
