JOSHUA ELEK: WATERCOLORS

Along Came a Spider: #1


I don’t have much to say on this one other than I painted very carefully, with multiple layers. I started with a near yellow neutralized with a smudge of Yellow Ochre, and added layers of progressively darker values pigments. I used Naples Yellow and Chinese White at the end in a few places to add some stocatto highlights.

My goal was to paint a wolf spider that could fool my cat. We will see if it works tomorrow.
