Description You can be deep in thought... But make sure you will not drown.
.

After finishing all of my midterm tests, I gave myself one whole day to do whatever I wanted (Yeah, the date was written on the bottom if you look carefully ). I decided to spend that day trying the new watercolor paper and this pic is the result.

Since I couldn't find where to buy Canson, the paper brand I often use, I bought some random one (Can't remember its name. Maybe Rango or Roger or something like that). This kind of paper is quite good though, It keeps the colors much more beautiful than Canson does. However, it would be a disaster if you use too much water. I nearly destroyed the hair with water =="

Well, a day to rest is enough. I have to come back to commissions and preparing for the coming final exams

As a watercolor newbie, I'm wondering how you got the lines so exact. Resist? Because usually that just stains my paper pink.

redsama In reply to HikariKage-Cat [2012-05-17 06:19:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I didn't use any masking fluid (I wish I had some). I just painted around the lines done in pencil. I think this technique takes time to get used to ^^

I'll say. I'm more of a oil paints girl. watercolors usually bleed on me. Must take a careful hand.

redsama In reply to HikariKage-Cat [2012-05-21 13:30:46 +0000 UTC]

Waa, I haven't found any chance to use oil but I guess it must be hard.

HikariKage-Cat In reply to redsama [2012-05-22 00:42:45 +0000 UTC]

Not hard, just a bit different. easier if you use water soluble. and u have to pay more attention to the texture.

It's nice how the color of her dress contrasts with the water so much.
I like how her expression is very subtle, yet clearly showing that she is deep in thought.
I myself tend to drown in my thoughts all the time, it is hard to actually come up for air sometimes...

Oh, thanks for your very thoughtful comment! I know, right? Sometimes it's hard to get out of our own thought but some realistic air is surely vital ^^

And yes, it's good to sometimes let some air flow through a full head

By the way, redsama, this is incredible! A magnificent portrayal of a vaguely clichΓ© idea
