Abstract nature paintings, with reverse stenciling.
(Reverse stenciling inspired by Krista Robertson on YouTube.)
Reverse stenciling: take a thin plastic stencil and place it on your dry watercolor painting. With a toothbrush (or a small sponge) with clean water rub away the paint through (part of) the stencil, then dab with a dry cloth to remove the watery paint. Repeat.
Use a toothbrush on quality cotton paper, or a sponge on more delicate paper.
The first one has a piece in the middle that didn’t go well, but I wanted to show it anyway.
I hope you like them.
