Here's the result of putting color (i.e. glazing) onto the picture. The glazing process consists of two parts, which is repeated to build depth. One is done dry, i.e., the color is put on the initially dry paper. This serves to color the various parts of the composition according to its natural color, e.g., a brownish color for land form, greenish color for leaves of trees etc. Additional color is added to enhancing the 3-D shape of the elements, i.e., to create shades and shadows. The second part of the process is a wet-in-wet wash, with the paper already wet. This is useful in creating forms with fuzzy soft edges, especially suitable for clouds and mists, the sky and distant mountains.
Repeating the glazing process a few time on the picture, we obtain this result.
