Potters Pink
What can I say about the color "Potters Pink"? I love it. Yes, it is weak and you really need to work hard at getting it onto your brush and showing up on the paper but once you do, oh wow..... The granulation is not subtle. And if you mix it with Cerulean blue you get a lovely greyish purple with even more granualtion. Then add a bit of Goethite and just watch all that granulation go to work. If you are not a fan of granulation in watercolor then of course you will be appalled. But for me, watercolor is all about granulation. If I don't get granulation, I feel like the painting is not complete.
This painting is just a few colors. I also added some Sap green and Hookers green for contrast.
