A Single Word

In the cold of winter, finally some inspiration to create a finished piece for an upcoming exhibit.
Step 1)  Pencil sketch

Step 2) Working with watercolor on good paper

Step 3) After the letter 'A' is dry, outlined the letter & color blocks with clear masking fluid.

Step 4)  Add watercolor washes to the square. Once dry the masking fluid comes off with a gentle rub.

Step 5)  Working out the words to go around the focal point. Still on this step.
