This was an introductory project to “wet on wet” technique in watercolor class. I also focused on glazing, warm and cool color variations, and using tone to convey depth and the outline of the forms rather than line. I wanted a more gothic/chiaroscuro feeling to come across.

In red ink, broadside features an image of a woman wearing traditional Plains Cree clothing dancing. Half of the image is solid red, and in the negative space it reads, "She had some horses who said they weren't afraid". On the other side of the woman, in red ink, it reads, "She had some horses who lied".

A full moon shines down on snowy fields as the fox turns to look back, across the hills to a distant farm house, chilly blues and white of the landscape contrast with his ruddy fur.
