THE BENEFITS
This challenge will provide a chance to create and observe unusual colour combinations and unexpected effects. It also helps to fuel the imagination, keeping your ideas fresh and interesting.
THE PROCESS
In A Treatise on Painting, the book that compiled his notes on his craft, Leonardo da Vinci recommended that an artist should look at walls stained with damp or stones of uneven colour and see in them “the likeness of divine landscapes”. This challenge is my version of da Vinci’s stained wall, made using damp paper and leftover watercolour.
