MASTER LESSON 4: Apply the Primary Colors to Art

You show what you know about Wet-On-Dry technique and working light to dark as you create an original work of art in this master lesson. Your painting will be unique as you apply the methods shown below to your own ideas. Select a photo or work from direct observation of an object that is a single color: red, or yellow, or blue. Work light to dark. (1) Draw an outline of the object in pencil on watercolor paper. (2) With a #10 round brush, mix the light color first, with a wash that uses little pigment and more water. Use a wet wash on dry paper. Allow one color to dry before placing another color beside it and before layering a color over it. Both the red wash and the black wash were applied with a single wash.
