Sometimes a watercolor study speaks volumes. An intuitive note, quickly put down, without any hesitation, one can build upon. At least that is what led to this image.
Usually I sample a color mixture to see if it is what I am aiming for. In the process I turn the wet pigment into a landscape. This way the color mixture does not sit simply on it's own.
The above tree massing color is the combination of raw sienna and Windsor violet. I have learned it is important in some way, to reference the shoreline in this case, with that horizontal section devoid of paint.
