VSW: Oysterbeds, France

I rarely do a piece more than once…
But I so loved this image and my first try
I did not get the depth of color in my washes.
I am here to say, once that happens start over, do not try to “fix” it!

It isn’t that the first one is bad, just washed out color, and the image from
Aniko was brilliant bright oranges and yellow and just wow!

I am happier with the one below, though I had some funky things happen
with my washes when I changed colors.
I have so much to learn about getting things juicy enough and working fast!
