I worked on this project this afternoon, a painting inspired by a photo that I took last summer in Portugal. (My photo reference is posted here, July 24.) Today I continued my struggle with the colors of the first building on the right. I changed the colors of the window frames. When you paint in watercolor, it is sometimes quite a challenge to shift colors. To avoid the colors getting darker, I applied several layers of white watercolor first, before adding new color. I think the colors are close to what I want at this point. I also did some work on the sidewalk and road. To be continued. . . .
