My first attempt at something completely imaginary. Meaning not painted from looking at a photograph or painting. At first I hated the outcome but the next day I went back and added some value and darker colours in the foreground which dramatically changed the painting for the better. This forced me to recap all that I've learned thus far about Watercolor:
1) lighter colors in the background.
2) the more distant an object, the more blue it becomes
3) wet on wet is great for skies and ethereal backgrounds
4) more detail in the foreground
5) more local color in the foreground
6) Darker colors in the foreground
