Stage 3

  Using transparent mixes of blues and purples to lay in the shapes of dark trees and woodland at the top of the picture. The broad brushmarks in the lower sections of the painting are to give an idea of the river flow and the shapes of the foreground grasses

Working with transparent colour and allowing the paint to dry after each stage leads to a multi-layered result, where previous layers can be seen showing through.
