Wet-onto-wet

In our artist muse group, we are exploring chapter two. They had a couple of concepts I really dug! One was wet-onto-wet, I took watercolor paper and wetted it first and then added the paint. I really like the idea of "out of order". Also, in chapter two, we discuss flowers and how to choose different focal points. Instead of placing a flower dead center...you off center it. I also wanted to play around with cards. So, here is my piece. It is a mixture of paper and fabric (Now, you can't expect me to give up my fabric fetish.) I also liked the idea of stitching into the card.

Also, I did wet-onto wet for this field picture, I will also turn this into cards as well. I also decided to add a little acrylic to the mix.
