Painting With a Low Key Triad in Watercolor

We often use interchangeable terms when we are talking about art and music. For example, the terms triad, tone, and key, can all apply to art or music. Painting in a low key triad is like playing musical chords in a minor key. Both set a somber or subdued mood. In this tutorial, I will show how using a low key triad can create a more melancholy feeling in watercolor.
