OCC Watercolor- Day 3 Negative Painting

I was in awe of this technicque that Dawn showed us. Her sample was beautiful.  I was soooo excited when she commented on how easy it was to do.  Boy, did I struggle with the amount of water and paint to use.  In the end, this was my best attempt.  I definetly improved with each attempt.  Will continue to practice, practice, practice...


Prior attempts (others went straight to the recycling bin).

In the second video, was practice on expanding what we learned about the brush technicque.  I didn't have a good stamped image to practice, but realized how easy is was to lay down water in a pear shape.  Here is what I did:

On the first pear, I made the mistake of putting my thumb on it to check if it was dry - oops.
