Watercolor Flowers Class: Students' Work

Several students worked with grisaille in unique ways, adapting the grays to the subjects they were painting.  To the left is Marilyn McGuire's painting of violets; she created a gradation of violet gray in her background wash, painted before the flower.   Carol Stanley used a very pale gray that did not interfere with the color of her hellebores. 
 

 
Barbara Broderick used masking fluid on her flowers before applying the background, and she opted to use a rose color rather than gray. She outlined the small flowers in fine pencil when the painting was completed.
