Practice with Reflections on Water


Found an excercise online to practice different ways of painting reflections.  On the left, I painted the windmill reflection first, then ran a blue wash over the top.  The middle windmill reflection was painted using horizontal strokes - the windmill colours laid down first followed by the water.  The reflection on the right was done with a wet on wet technique.  I think I like the middle method best although the wet on wet has the potential to look very realistic.
