This time I used the batik method to
fill in the white grout with gamboge yellow.
It gives this tile an extra dimension!
I like how the end of the right trumpet is popping
out of the tile....
This is a French horn by the way.
I chose this instrument as subject for this
watercolor since I
love its shape that consists of tubing wrapped into
a coiled form.
It is developed in France from the hunting horn in
about 1650. That is why it is called French
Horn!!
