Blending paint

I really enjoyed the blue colours that I had created in the last piece, therefore I wanted to look at painting them onto paper to look at the different tones that I could create throughout this piece. I'm happy with how this piece turned out, although the marks all look the same I feel that this study has really helped me to look at how adding different tones, for example, black will change the overall tonal value throughout the piece. In addition to that when drying the paint, I noticed that it began to crack, I really like this affect, it adds needed texture within the piece. To conclude, I am happy with how this piece turned out, I feel it has really helped me to look at how tones blend together.
