SOL19 Day 15 Two In Blue
Two In Blue
How does it feel to water color
when you’re just beginning?
When there’s no room for a goof–
no wiping up a gob
plopped wrong-
just imagine
and
go with the flow
like this:
Dip into blue;
pause;
take a breath;
a focus on that spot
on the left
then dare
drop
color;
a swoosh
of the brush
a flick
for the tail;
Quick.
Rinse.
Dip into yellow–
no pause,
just
drop
yellow
there-
yes, there
and watch
it
blend
and
flow
to
green.
Rinse.
Repeat.
Sigh and let dry.
Pen in beak- black outlines for yellow.
Pen in eyes; round, wide.
Highlight white: two dots.
Ah.
Two In Blue–
Birds.
Ok.
I can do that.
