Desert Dusk Watercolor


 This "Desert Dusk Watercolor," is from tutorial by Sarah Cray for Let's Make Art. I lightly drew the scene and then follow the colors in the tutorial, enjoying the rainbow effects of the lines of color on the wet paper.

This painting is on a 4x6" Winsor Newton watercolor cold press postcard. I used Winsor Newton Cotman tube colors.

I've been enjoying the limited color palette and the smaller work space. It's an enjoyable challenge.
