Palms – A Study in Negative Space on Masa – 7″ x 10″ Watercolor
This is loosely based on a photo from Wildhorse Australia on
WetCanvas. It was so fun! I find that painting on masa encourages me
to develop negative space. Practicing this technique can only make my
watercolors better. I love this stuff (masa)! Thanks, Leslie!
