Daniel Smith Artist Materials just published an article I wrote about combining block printing with watercolor. You can read and view a-step-by-step demonstration online of how I created this print. I love the process of carving and the strong values I can achieve, but there's no need to give up the subtlety of watercolor, as I am able to manage gradation and the beauty of watercolor hues with the process I describe in the article.
