Acrylic + Watercolor on Yupo

This is the second painting I did in Sandy Maudlin's workshop. It's still a work in process, and I found this technique much more comfortable. Essentially, I poured acrylic paint on Yupo and let it run and bleed. That "pour" becomes as the middle values for the painting. The next step is to use rubbing alcohol to remove the paint to get light values. Finally, the darks and details are added with watercolor.

At this stage of the painting, there are very few darks. I'm living with this version for a while, and pondering just how much I want to add.
