Hi,
If this message posts twice it’s because this is the second time I posted it. I was given the ‘your message was successful’ prompt but I no longer have any confidence in that as so many of my messages have disappeared into the ether. I apologize if I did not wait long enough.
What is the name for the accumulation of color as watercolors approach edges? This is where there is an increase in saturation as the pigments moves to the low parts of the water. Obviously I am not familiar with painting terminology but maybe someone can help me out. What are either the saturated or unsaturated parts called or the areas of transition, or even the process? This phenomenon may not even be watercolor specific. It probably occurs in printing with inks and dyes too. I have been referring to it as bleaching and bleeding but I don’t think that properly describes it.
Thanks,
Ron
