Well, here we are, with the bungee jumping and all the festive little characters living in colour!Actually I'm going to have to play around with the colour adjustments a bit more, as these are much muddier than the original watercolour, which was nothing but sweetness and light.
This is despite the fact that I have only used process colours on this - yep, all the different hues are blends of process cyan, magenta, yellow and black. I once did a painting where I only used the pure colours, e.g. purples were made by overlaying red cross-hatching over blue cross-hatching. The painting is smaller than A4, but it took WEEKS. Haven't tried it since - had to be a reason why the technique's never caught on!

LOVE IT! & I WANNA MEET THAT BUNGEE GUY!! X
The colours look lovely and bright to me. I paint all my pictures by laying up a slight varaition to the printing primarys. I use perminant purple though to get the shadows not black and I have just started to use my second favourite blue monestral blue.
