This week's assignment: Wet onto Wet Landscape

This is an assignment I am actually very familiar with...wet onto wet painting is very fun for me. It is freeform and abstract. I need to do a landscape with A LOT of clouds that has a wet onto wet landcape...I may become very wild with colors on this...I really like wild colored landscapes. See my January Postings for an example that I love. I really don't like realism in my art for some reason. I like abstractions much better. I don't know if I should use the Arches All Cotton Paper for this assignment or if I should use the Strathmore Aquarius Cotton/Synthetic Blend Paper for this assignment. I have both. I have one week to do this...so keep checking the blog for installments. Any color requests....does anyone have a decorating scheme they would like me to paint toward...I would like to provide prints of my paintings to my admirers in exchange for gifts of paint...Windsor Newton Professional Watercolors please. My favorite colors are on my wish list www.cheapjoes.com I don't have magenta in my favorites, but I would like a large tube of it too. It is hard to mix really good pinks out of Scarlet Lake.
