Egg project

For my Grade 10s .....

Try this composition of mine in watercolours. 

Look at your collage and watercolour 'cloud' for paint guidance.

Now try your own photoshoot.....

Use the photographic references you have taken.

Start the painting by drawing in soft, light pencil. Remove the excess graphite.

Do the under-painting with watercolour washes – work over the whole page with the lightest value colours. Pat out some whites.

Let dry.

When dry, add darker transparent washes over some of the under-painting to add illusions of form. Hard edge = no wet paper; blurry blended edges = on dampened  paper.

Repeat as necessary………

Scan to document the painting as it grows.

Lastly,  work over the painting with pen & ink.
