So this is my second attempt at the previous technique and I think I have more of a handle on the idea. Essentially, it helps to think of the water colour technique itself which is ink on wet. Using a few strokes of the brush to gesture a form by suggestion rather than detail. (Is my theory).
Here are my notes.

Step 1) Is to mask out the main areas of colour and whilst doing so... create textures by playing with the density of your mask. |
Step 2) Is to create a general water colour background to sit your figure into. |
Step 3) Is a process of blending, painting in and unmasking your figure to reveal or hide details according to your own artistic direction |
You can save these brushes that I created for this project for your own experiments. |
