But now...
Now is a gift, appreciate what you have.
And that is why it is called the present.

i LOVE this new pin up of yours! like, i adore it! i can't quite pinpoint what it is about this that appeals to me so much, but it might be how delicately drawn her face is, or those super clean lines on her body, or the sharp watercolors? ahh, i dunno! her face, it calls to me :love: :D <3333333

So you already know i'm not skilled in paint, I do see a hint of line work in this though. Are you doing an ink outline?

I'm curious because some of the shadow areas have a very distinct stroke to them. It seems too thin to be a watercolor brush.

Normally I think I wouldn't like the combination of very well blended colors and the very blunt line work, but I think there is enough of it in the arms and legs to balance the piece. Just thinking out loud here really, I'd like to learn to use the medium eventually.

As for criticism, I think the closest leg could use a bit more definition, either in the ankle or just with more contrast. Not sure if that's possible with watercolors at this stage, it might just make it muddy looking but it's a thought.

I would just love to see what you did in the arms and face extend into the legs a bit more. Otherwise I love it and all of your work so far.

See you around Christmas, you loose moraled woman you =).

Morality schmorality ^_~

I think part of the problem is that my watercolors get destroyed when I photograph them. I would take them outside, but it's miserably cold and wet, so that's a no-go.

The lines that you see are pencil. I lay down structural lines first with pencil, go over it with watercolor, and sometimes I work back in with pencil at the end. Because I just love cross-hatching. If I thought that it was a distraction, I wouldn't work that way, but I kind of like the end result. And it sets me apart from the watercolor purists ^_~
