The challenge this week on
DailyPaintworks.com (it is only Wed and I already have it done - getting a little better) is to paint with one color for one stroke. This is much more applicable to oil or acrylic painting where seperate brushstrokes are used as opposed to watercolor where the paint soaks into the paper and blends and mixes. I decided to paint on gessoed paper because the wateroclor will sit on the surface and allow for a more 'stroke-like' approach. It is fun to paint this way but also challenging because the paint wants to lift off the paper everytime you try and layer the paint - have to be quick and direct.
