Monochromatic: containing or using only one color.
Using the watercolor paper given to you in class, create a monochromatic watercolor painting form a photo you took or from a segment of a magazine photo.
The following example is a watercolor created from a photo Mrs. Russo Scherr took. The original was a color photo. The painting was made by layering the blue hues from the lightest to the darkest in successive layers.
Keep in mind the rules of watercolor.
Start with:
- the lightest things
- the largest areas
- the furthest objects
