"The shrubbery seems a little dark, overall. So what we're going to do is lighten it up by adding some water to it in certain areas. We want to leave some parts quite dark. And it's going to dry lighter of course, too. And we're going to just keep working. Keep working the Yellow Ochre and Payne's Grey as it goes around the rock some. And what we're going to do here is sweep the color up. Make it look like shrubbery. And come back with some darker down in here. Putting the darker towards the bottom area. Darker towards the bottom area here. Bring this down some. Overall just tweaking it up. Tweaking up the shrubbery."
