Carol Mansfield - Magic Garden
Watercolor painting by Carol Mansfield from the San Diego Watercolor Society (California).
Artist Statement: This painting is acrylic paint on watercolor paper. I work with fluid acrylic and particularly enjoy the texture and layers of color that are possible. I start the texture with gloss medium or gesso. I then develop a value composition followed by many layers of thin paint for color and depth.
