I laid down quite a bit of layers of watercolors and thought I was ending up with an Indian Chief with feathers! As you can see, once I started to ink the drawing, nary a feather in sight!!! This face was a bit of a surprise for me, because I rarely do faces that aren't facing totally front. So any kind of angle in the face is a new thing for me. Unlike acrylics or oils, because this is in watercolors, I don't think the scan or the photos do justice to the translucency of the colors in the real card.
The exercise did do the job though. I feel my creative mojo back again and can't wait to get the laundry and the cooking and the cleaning done, so I can get back to my art room! lol

Oh my heavens and stars...this is totally RAD-AWESOME! Yes, I was a teen in the 80's! SMILE! I love watercolors! My favorite medium by far! You totally ROCK at faces! I need work! You all inspire me!
You need to let the laundry sit for a day and keep painting. This is amazing, Renu.
