My shiitake mushroom painting final result….
I’m pleased with the effect of layered, translucent, complementary colors.

I start with an India ink wash, and then begin to build layers of watercolor. I keep a paper towel and a test strip of rice paper by my pallet to check strokes, values, and colors.

Sometimes I turn the painting upside down to get a different perspective.
