11.2 Assignment: Watercolor Vignette

• Description

• For IAD and LAN Students:

Create a watercolor vignette of any landscape or architectural subject that contains the following:

• Create a graded wash of a sky or wall surface.

• Use wet - on - wet technique. This would work for planting, water, and/or sky.

• Use dry brush technique as well. This could be a foreground shrub or an indoor plant.

• Keep your mixing to only two colors.

• It should be around 5"x 7" in size.

• You may use a photo reference or even try to recreate the techniques in another artist's painting. Recreating another artist's work is fine as an exercise, but not for any kind of distribution. If you choose to recreate another artist's work, you must submit a JPEG of the original work along with the version that you painted for this assignment.

• Purpose: To utilize all of the techniques in this module in one image.
