Ornament

I really like the design.  I'm fairly new to watercolor, especially wet on wet, but I was reasonably pleased with the final product.  I mounted it on gold paper and I'm not sure that is the best choice.  I didn't have all the correct colors (hansa yellow, not lemon yellow) and mixed up a yellow ochre substitute out of hansa yellow, a touch of red and a touch of blue.  I also mixed the blue green (sap green and cerulean blue)  I did the light green hanging leaves with a wedge brush that I am more familiar with.  If I do it again I'd make the holly leaves larger.  I also only had a micron .01 pen which gives a different look.Ornament - image 1 - student project
