If you choose to paint along here is my formula for an emotive watercolor gardening experience:
1) Rose and Foreground Foliage : Loose pencil sketch of subject focusing on your main character
2) Rose and Foreground Foliage : Begin with the Push and Pull method, laying in a line of color with your round brush and blending with a damp to slightly wet angle shader brush (tea consistency)
-while wet drop in a bit of the Interference Copper into the lightest part of each petal and leaf
3) Background: Loose soft watercolor corners using a fine spray mister. Paint in some blue & green into the corners and then blend out with angle shader brush and a light spray with the fine spray mister. This will give it a moody rainy day vibe.
4) Rose and Foreground Foliage: Once D=dry begin to deepen values, shadows, and details as needed. (tea to milk consistency)
-try to add limited details, just enough to tell the story
5) Dry Brush and Stencil lifting to add texture and interest as needed.
Color Mixing Tip: Dip the tip of your angle shader brush into a base color and mix together with one tablespoon water. Continue to dip the tip of brush to get a bit of mix in color and/or base color until you get a favorable color blend.
Adding more water = tea consistency/ lighter values
Less water =milk consistency/ darker values
No water = honey consistency / full value
Caution: Pthalo colors are very dominant in mixes, less is more.
