Grey Transparent Watercolor Technique

Grey Transparent Watercolor Technique by Leada Wood

I am still exploring the mystery of this hibiscus! I started the same as in the other two demos, drawing lines and circles. This time I used only transparent compliments to make various shades of grey, again changing color or value as I came to a line. I defined the shape of the flower and put in the darks and then popped in bright color here and there for interest.  I have enjoyed playing around with this flower and will probably do more experimental watercolor...stay tuned!
