Tape birch trees

Students apply masking tape to watercolor paper, they were instructed to create a space that shows a foreground, middle ground and background as well as have a horizon line somewhere.  They went in with thin sharpies to outline trees and detail work.  Day 2 consisted of learning how to paint using water colors to layer colors and create shadows below their trees.   Day 3, is the big reveal!!!  They get to lift the tape off the paper and use sharpie to add texture.   Voila!  More pics to come
