Watercolor and Resist Underwater Scenes

During the project students focused on the following to create lively underwater landscapes:
  • Watercolor techniques – washes, blending colors, applying salt crystals to wet areas
  • Batik-like linear effect – using watercolor resist on all contour lines
  • Use of warm and cool colors for contrast and vibration – one color group for the foreground and the other for the background
