When I got the book "Watercolor With Me in the Jungle," by Dana Fox, I knew one day I would have to paint a Panda picture. I also knew, I'd need a stencil for the bamboo. Pandas love bamboo! I ordered The Crafters Workshop plastic 6x6" stencil.
I traced the panda from the book and used my light box to transfer the tracing to my watercolor paper. I cut away some of the excess paper from the original tracing and used it to keep the panda clean of spatter. I taped the stencil down twice and brushed watercolor paint over it.
I painted the panda using one color, Lamp Black, but varied the amount of water to change the color from black to shades of grey. I added details with a black Micron Pen and a white Gelly Roll Pen.
I gave the panda a mountain to sit on with two shades of brown watercolor paint.
I used Winsor Newton Cotman Watercolor tubes on Arches paper for this painting.
