Subtlety

The sunset spilling all over your window was a peach turning orange, with plums and grapes bursting into clouds.

Wet on wet I was told of this technique. Watercolors and brushes steeped into too much water ran swiftly across the page, leaving colors to chase one another. Hues falling into different hues, gaining the subtlety of clouds.

Alas, I could never paint clouds.
