Print and transfer basic line drawing to your stretched watercolour paper.
Apply a light wash of Raw Sienna and while still wet dab spots with a tissue to lift some paint for the highlights.
After allowing to dry, rewet the onion and apply some Light Red. Again dab with a crumpled tissue while still wet to save highlight.
While the paper is still slightly damp apply some more Light Red using a small round brush.
Using a mix of Raw Sienna/Lemon Yellow, paint the fallen outer skin and then apply dabs of Light Red while the wash is still wet.
