Application of the basic washes. This should be quick using as few strokes as possible to cover any area being worked on.	Planning the painting: Mentally paint the picture before proceeding - analyse the source picture above - and be aware of the colour mixes you are about to apply to each area, try visualising the result. Will the brush you are about to use carry enough colour - is the mix strong or weak? Try it out on your - trial pad!
