Step Five - Local Color Glazes

 

 Step Five - Local Color Glazes are being added. 

Blues were painted over the sky and mountains. It was "pounced" and then some of the paint was lifted away using a cotton swab, creating the rocky crevases. Greens were painted into the foliage. Sienna was glazed over the base areas of the temples and on parts of the boat. Indigo, cobalt, viridian, and cerulean were used over the water areas. Some detailed glazes have been defining the dorado fish. Paynes gray and blue went over the dolphins. Some white highlights have also been brought back up, on the temples and the fish fins.
