Reflection Color Scheme 

It was difficult to use only certain colors, instead of the colors that matched the paper. It was also hard to transition between the five different color schemes.  It was a good color group exercise.

Color as Expression

I began with shades of blue because that has always been my favorite color.  I chose the cool over the warm colors because they are closer to blue and the deep shades in the picture.

Understanding

Creating the painting helped enable me to understand watercolor because the way you have to mix the colors and create shading as well as making the color look like a pane of glass.
