Musical Inspiration: Johann Strauss
Subject: Flower Vignette
Media: Watercolor
Sketchbook Exercise: Use a pencil to create a contour sketch of something that interests you. I chose a still life and photographed it, so I could easily complete the painting/sketch in another location. Use watercolor paints to "fill" your contour sketch and let the music guide the rhythm of your brush strokes. Build up layers of color after early layers dry to add contrast throughout your sketch.
