Hi, I've been trying to emulate the technique made famous by artists like David Grove. They lay down textured gesso, then draw. then wash big areas in gouache. then 'pick-out' the highlights with a brush dipped in water. and finally, paint back in darks and lights.
I can't figure out how to remove a watercolor layer without removing the oil paint beneath it.
and if i use separate layers, it defeats the purpose of the textured gesso (which is having the washes run into the grooves of the gesso)
Does anybody have any ideas?
