Still Playing - Hummer

Today I thought I would try again with the wet in wet by using a mister before starting to lay down color.   With these I'm going straight in with brush and color. 

This is so not how I'm used to working and so outside of my comfort zone.  On the positive side, it's a nice change challenging myself to play without worrying too much if everything is precise.  Hard to be precise when working with varying spots of wet and dry paper and allowing paint to do its thing (giving it a fuzzy look in some areas).

I still haven't made up my mind what I think of the results...especially with the paper I chose to work this on.  Might try again on better quality watercolor paper.

Grumbacher watercolor pad and QoR watercolors.
