Never want to work on the hat. So it's my number six brush, I'm just gonna go in with the area of the hat, leaving the hearts dry, a little bit of the edge dry. And I don't want the folded part of the hat, the part that's behind the front to work its way into the top part. So I leave a little dry edge and I'm going to go with my number four brush. And we'll take a little of this turquoise and I'm going to put it in a palette all by itself so that I can get a really super light color. So I put a little bit in its own little well get a brush full of water.
Now pull a lot this pigment off my brush, and I'm going to start here on the left hand side, and I'm going to deposit pigment right on the edge. Go all the way around the edge, the edge of the beard as well as this edge of the edge. Hold here or the back of the hat. I'll rinse my brush. Just wet the area here so it blends together. Again, it's a really soft color.
Then I'm going to take that color we mix the light version and continue going right around the edge of the hat. Put my piece over, go around those hearts. Pick up a little more of my color. And I'm going to leave a little dry edge, the end of that hat fold. Still echoing the shape that beautiful curve we have going in to positive pigment right on the edge. I'll rinse my brush, put water down the center, and then just try and draw it out from where we've already deposited the color.
Turn my piece around, see what we have here. I'm going to switch to my smaller brush because I can control the pigment a little better. Pick up that blue pigment. And just right on the edge, I want it to be a little deeper in color. And on the edge, I mean just the perimeter where all our black marks are our lines. And then any areas that seem to be drying.
I'll go in there with a damp brush, just blend them out so there's no harsh line. And we'll let this layer completely dry.
