A Look Into My Sketchbook: Portrait painting in watercolours
Hi Steemit,
Today, I wanted to share with you my process in creating these illustrations, that I have made for the 100heads challenge.
I got most of the reference pictures from sktchy. This really cool app artist/muses, go check it out!
Here are the drawings:
They all start with a loose fineliner sketch that for the first one, looked a bit like this:
I then go ahead and grab my watercolour set and add some color and shading where I see fit.
What's cool about already having the fineliner sketch is that it lets me be really loose in the watercolour part.
I just got a tripod, so I'm planning on filming the painting process, would you be interested in seeing that?
Thanks for checking this post out!
Excellent use of watercolors, beside great drawings @nadejdaalienor.
Thank you so so much @jungwatercolor!
