watercolor study on tea stained paper
I have been spending much time on a highly detailed watercolor and decided last night to take a break. I loosened up and painted the Ca d'Oro facade, without the use of an underlying pencil sketch. I have also been meaning to paint on the Arches rough paper I had stained with tea some time ago, so this was a good opportunity to test that out as well. I am pleased with the results enough to perhaps try developing this for a finished painting.

Lovely delicate piece and interesting way to produce tinted paper.
Thanks Mick. I often enjoy a loose study like this after spending a lot of time on more detailed finished paintings and Venice is one of my favorite subjects:) Will surely be working on tea stained paper again.
