"What this has shown us is basically how to put a sky in and make the clouds form by using a paper towel to randomly place clouds in. Also showed us how we can grow a forest with just two or three colors and grow it up to the sky using wet and wet processes. And we can make planking with vertical holes so to speak to gives a suggestion of vertical wood and more wet and wet with a couple of colors in here; character in the fence and then scrape marks for the snow that's covering the tops of these fence posts. And then to put some more interest rather than having a big white area, we put just the most subtle violets down here in a wet and wet arrangement which started out just as clear water with a little bit of brown in it and then we added just the barest hints of your cobalt blue and permanent rose which produce a subtle lavender style violet."
