Here is my first turtorial for WoJ.
First some facts:
Paper; 300g Canson aquarelle
Bruches ; Springer 0, Panduro size 0 and Italeri size 000
Ink pad; Archival Ink, Jet Black
When I colour I move the paintbrush in small circles. I wipe of some of the water, it must not be to wet.

I always starts colouring the face.

At first I use Vintage photo. I start colouring where it is naturally shaddows, and always along the edge of the face.
Now I have coloured the face, hands and ears. The I will do it all over again but with the colour ; Tattered rose.
Then I change my paintbrush to Italeri size 000
And then I start with Nora`s hair. I use antique linen. I use it on all of her hair.
Look at the arrow;
I start with Walnut stain in the shaddow area. (This picture is a bit yellow. I blame it on my camera, it`s not that good.)

Her eyes are coloured with Stormy sky
Her clothes; I starts under her arms

Hi Laura
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.
Blending out the lines can be really difficult. You have to work fast, so the ink dosen`t dry. Wipe your brush and add more water. Then you move your brush in circles at the line.
Maybe this can help you.♥
Practice make perfect...♥♥
