Polka Dot Coat


Differing textures intensify each other. Whether it is the texture of a medium itself, of a material, or of a decorative pattern, textures, in opposing and enhancing each other, produce visual contrasts that can play important organizational and expressive roles.
~ Nathan Goldstein

Me: I painted the background using watercolor - transparent, translucent, and opaque pigments. After this dried, I scanned the image, re-sized it, and used it as the background for my digital painting titled Polka Dot Coat.
