Hello,
Today I am sharing a watercolor portrait I started the other day of a good friend of mine.
The portait is not finished but I thoght I wuld share some of the progress so far;
This is where I left of. The painting is made with Gansai Tambi watercolors on Hahnemuhle bamboo paper.
And here are some progress photos;
This is the first watercolor portrait that I'm painting that I didn't considered finished after the first session. Continuing painting on it again is going to be a new experience as I usually prefer to paint wet on wet with aquarell.
When the portrait is finished I'll write an update post to share my thoughts and the result!
Hope you enjoyed and a good new week to you all! :)
very cool! love seeing your progression. I do the same kind of thing with graphite. wish I could work with colors like this though. followed and upvoted, check out my page sometime! Cheers
Thank you very much for your comment and follow @barrysamways! :D I appreciate it! :)
I'd love to get back into painting! I find watercolour a little difficult to keep work with. I am pretty heavy handed so I really appreciate seeing watercolour with the lightness you have achieved in the skin tone and in the eyes. :)
Thank you so much @kiwicanfly! :) I find watercolor difficult too, I'm mainly working with oil paint so this is a whole new way of going about it for me, but it's a lot f fun! :)
You captured expression so good, sometimes it's nice to paint someone you know. Somehow character we now comes to surface much easier. Good one, looking forward for finish, and if you leave it now it would be great also.
Thank you very much @jungwatercolor! :) Yes, I love whenever I get the chance to paint someone of my friends or family! :) Thank you again! :)
Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
I like it @allabout! :)
