Video Transcript

"Now we're wiping the brush out and now we're going to gradate it, it may be easier to gradate it if we turn the whole painting. And we're going to soften this up into the lighter area and tweak any areas down here. Now these two areas here are going to be, create hard edges unless you go back with a very dry brush with just a tiny bit of water on it. And then scrub out these areas, you don't need to apply much pressure and it will soften up the whole area. K now we're going to come back with some more Burnt Umber and work in behind the wing."
