For my second house, I'm gonna do a similar procedure but I'm going to use a gradient instead of just one color for the background. So the same steps where I go and I put a layer of clear water on the house, avoiding the windows and door. And then we'll mix my two colors. I'll put two spots of water on my palette, and I'll mix some of this yellow, this deep yellow, yellow orange with a little bit of water. And then over here, I'll mix a little bit of orange in this palette, this little spot so it's a very faint color. Maybe I'll make another brush.
I'm gonna go in there with my lighter color this yellow, pick it up on my brush, and I'm going to add it on one side of the top of the house. Over here on the right hand side in the center going around this window Going down a little ways as well, and then right over here in the corner I want one side to be higher up just like this, I can add a little more here. Switch to my number two brush and pick up some of this orange color. And I want to add it before I touch it to the area I added the yellow first on all sides. And then I'll come back in with a sharp point and edit it added to the area that has the yellow right near it. So that will bleed a little bit.
Since Orange is the dominant color, and will dilute or soften the yellow, I want to make sure that I have more yellow down than I do orange. So in this area here Here, I'll leave a little spot where you can go back in with a yellow and put in some yellow and this gives a nice variation. I pick up some of this yellow right over here. Make sure I have my outline really pristine. And then I'll let this layer dry.
