A NEW DAY & Vertical Brush Strokes

A NEW DAY
Watercolor - 11x14

The majority of the time when I paint a sky I use horizontal brush strokes, so I decided to change things ups a bit for A New Day. I first wet the paper for the sky area and then brushed on shades of turquoise and mauve using vertical strokes and being careful to save some white areas.

 It is always good to shake thing up a bit every once in a while and stretch yourself creatively!
