Charlevoix beach scene II - step II...

This second layer was applied thickly and loosely... and almost transparently in a "grisaille" fashion (I used gel). The result though was not good enough to leave it like that.

Before proceeding to the next level, I need to study flaws and retain/emphasize as many of them as possible in the next step!

I have started buying colors by the jar. The slight variations brought about by using a different brand of my favorite colors threw a monkey wrench in my picture! If I survive, it'll look like a palette change...without a palette change!
