Your paint for this project will actually be using one color. It's up to you Which one you choose. Pour some water into a little container. I'm using plastic shot glasses. They are very convenient then at some water color and check on a piece of paper.

That's your object. Now paint the background around it. When the paper is dry, draw a second finger and again find everything but the object. However, first, add a little bit off a fresh color to a solution. This will make the painted layer small, distant. Repeat this action a few more times. Remember to add some more color to the solution. Every time you paint a layer, - that's it.
