Graded washes
Graded washes are washes in which the pigment goes from light to dark or
dark to light. Prepare your board as you did for the flat wash. For light
areas use a wash that has little pigment and proceed to stronger washes. Start
at the top of the page with either the lightest wash or the darkest wash.
Figure 1-25 illustrates procedures for painting a graded wash.
