VOCABULARY
VALUE/ INTENSITY The lightness or darkness of tones or colors. Intensity takes a look at how bright or dull a color is
WET-ON-WET Painting wet-on-wet is when you're using fresh (wet) paint onto paint that is still wet rather than onto paint that has dried. The result is colors that blend into one another, and mix in the painting.
WASH A wash is a very thin coat of paint. You can still see the paper underneath a wash as it is transparent. Washes are good for flat, light areas like sky or a large body of water
WET-ON-DRY This technique is well- suited for the painting areas that require greater control and more saturated colors as in the foreground of a landscape. Wet-on-dry means you work with a wet brush on dry paper
DRY BRUSH By blotting your brush dry and applying it to dry paper you can get interesting textures, hard edges or really saturated colors
OVER PAINTING Painting over an area that has previously been painted.

Middleground – The objects towards the middle of the picture plane. Objects in the middleground have less detail than the foreground. Background – The objects located towards the back of the picture plane. Objects with the least detail are located here.
