Clear as mud??

Sometimes between my original messy sketch, linework and applying color I manage to totally lose my way to the dynamic drawing I saw in my minds eye. Back in my analog watercolor days I had a mentor who swore by the importance of a quick value sketch to create the roadmap to help define the path you want to travel. So, long story not so short I’m posting the work process used for my latest effort. Initial sketch, linework, value sketch and color application. The value sketch took all of 5 minutes and was used to determine color value afterwards. The colors are a bit saturated/exaggerated but I think that illustrates the point a little better. Trying to see through the mud? Give this a shot. Oh, 100% Morpholio Trace.
