| 3. Hold the painting up, and spray off whatever didn't dry. Three easy steps! |  |
 | With the batik treatment out of the way, it's time to concentrate on the main subject. I deepened the color of the fish, wet in wet, letting the paint bleed into some of the white parts. The colors I used were quinacridone/nickel azo gold, quinacridone burnt orange, quinacridone red, alizarin crimson, cadmium yellow, and raw sienna. |
| Next, I added a wash to tint some of the whites. This photo was taken before I used the spray bottle to disperse it. |  |
 | When it was just how I wanted, I put it under a couple of lights to dry. A really delicate wash can be pushed around by the hair dryer. |
| Needed to soften the outline of the fish, so I painted a (crude!) blue stripe around it. Maybe you can make it out in this dreadful photo. |  |
