Matching the edge...Definitely the second treatment! Matching the edges usually results in some overlap, or a little bit of white paper left. There's nothing wrong with "easy". In fact, I think with watercolor, the easy way is the right way!Hoffmann Watercolorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15688849398572134388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1851539223785930355.post-90874380584945338432014-05-27T14:49:29.460-07:002014-05-27T14:49:29.460-07:00Hi Tom,

Painting them as a single layer and darker color directly on the paper and adjacent to the light areas - thus getting more transparency, or <br /><br />2. painting the base color all over and putting a second layer (like some sort of blue) on top, obtaining 2 layers but maybe more coherence, also making complex shadow shapes - as in your last photo above - easier to paint?Muddy62https://www.blogger.com/profile/03234635367997049374noreply@blogger.com
