Description I first applied a little masking fluid for the light and ice spots on the surface of river and forest. I then used wet-on-wet techniques to paint the snow and river. Finally, with a small brush, detailed out the trees, branches and shadow...

(watercolor 28.5.09)

It's beautiful, I love how you utilized soft edges primarily instead of hard defined edges.

What colors did you use in this?
And on what paper?

shve In reply to Bluebird595 [2009-06-10 02:23:30 +0000 UTC]

Hi Bluebird, thanks for your comment.

I used normal watercolor on 300GSM acid free, cotton fibre, cold pressed paper.

I'll put in the techniques I applied into the artist's comments above.
