Good morning again. This is Sue Rose with Expert Village and this segment I'm going to show you how to apply your cerium blue to this watercolor sunset. We have already applied the transparent yellow, the cadmium red being sure to dry in between each segment. Use your handy hairdryer to dry in between putting down each color. I'm going to begin again with the cerium starting again at the top of my paper. I'm going to begin to add this blue. You can see how nice it fits in to the sky. I'm going to be very loose with this. Some areas will be darker than others. Again, work horizontally on your paper. Now I'm getting down to the land and to the water and I'm going to go a little bit darker with my colors here. Once again, I'm going to go darker on the water. Be sure and watch the next segment on how to apply streaks into your wet watercolor painting.
