Playing with Colour | Fast and Loose Watercolours

I've started using the 2 reds on my palette more frequently recently. It's been interesting to see the effects of this extra burst of colour in my paintings. The reds (light red and alizarin crimson) can be toned down a little by mixing with other hues if they get a bit loud.

Hey Steve
Do you make your scene up as you go or are they from reference photos or your own sketches
They are so inspiring and I love your colours

[@marknaylor9394]
