Tweeking the Colour

This piece was not the right colour. It was too green. Last night I added browns and orange in stages.

 

I started with a very pale wash off grey. Muddy water, no more. This was let dry and ironed.
I mixed some brown and with a very fine brush applied it selectively, dried it and ironed.
Still wasn't happy so this morning I mixed some olive green by combining the brown wash and some remaining green wash and got the colour I wanted. This too was applied with a fine brush. And as a last act of bravado I splashed fine drops of the olive over more of the surface by striking the brush above the cloth.

 

Now I have something closer to what I envision. Swamp or Wetlands.
